Nice update for classic Japanese telescopes

Exactly what I needed to use my modern 1.25” eyepieces with my classic 1960-vintage ATCO telescope. Seems well made, sturdy, and precise. Threads cleanly onto the scope focus tube and holds eyepieces well centered.

Works perfectly

Very nice finish. Threaded directly into drawtube of old 60’s refractor to convert from .965 to 1.25” and still reach focus. Glad this product exists!

To convert old refractor to 1.25

I used this to replace the original .965 eyepiece holder on a 1960's Jason 80mm refractor, so that I could use 1.25 eyepieces. It worked great, the threads matched up perfectly. I imagine it would work on some other japanese-built refractors of the same era, but I don't know which.
