Extension tubes First Light Optics - Two-inch Focus Extension tubes (the ones shown are for 2" eyepieces but the concept is the same for 1.25" eyepieces and nosepieces). The top is 1.25" internal diameter and the bottom is 1.25" outside diameter to suit the focuser tube.

I have a number of different webcams and each has a nosepiece and I have not had any problem in fitting them to an extender or a diagonal, AFAIK the cam nosepiece is just the same as a normal 1.5" eyepiece. As said I have failed to achieve focus with an extender but the diagonal is perfect and it requires only a short space.

Been looking for this sort of coupler too. No joy yet. What about a cheap Barlow/s with the lens bit taken out? How cheap and nasty do they come??!!

Just to confirm tried the toucam out with no extender, but with a diagonal attached and hey presto it all worked amazingly well. Not sure what I have changed since 2 weeks ago, but ... it now all works well. Managing to get focus fine.
