Hi Pete,sorry to hear about your eyepiece
Don't you have carpet on the floor of the observatory
I once had my Type 1 13 mm Nagler fall out of my 8" SCT, I blocked it from hitting the floor of the Obs with my foot.
Saved the eyepiece but broke one of my toes
Moral of the story is Tighten the screws in the Star Diagonal and put carpet on the floor
Cheers
PS the type 1 13mm Nagler weighs nearly half a kilogram
