Hi, Thanks for the ultra great suggestion. Let me follow that up with a stupid question: how do I know if I have a 3" or 3.5" focused? I measured the diameter of the hole of the focuser, it is 3 inches. Does that make it a 3" focuser? I have an end cap and it screws into the focuser and the flattener, so I am covered there. So I should get the riser for the 3" focuser? Would using a reducer/flattener change the inward focus enough that I don't need the riser? Thanks! Jaxon

Hi guys, this is my first post ever on this website. I got an Esprit 120 used with a Feather Touch focuser. Its drawtube is not long enough at all, so it came with a spacer. However, the spacer's threads aren't great and are the cause of some slight tilt. Do you think adding a 0.75x reducer/flattener will fix the issues with our focusing distance? I figured this thought might be useful for you guys as well as me. Jaxon
