SCT to M48 adaptor?

[michaelmorris]

I would like to mount a Skywatcher off axis guider (OAG) on to my Celestron SCT 6.3 focal reducer.  To achieve this ideally I'd want a slimline adaptor with a male M48 thread on one side and female SCT thread on the other.  I've looked, but I can't find one.  Any ideas?

You can probably get an SCT to T thread adapter and a T thread to M48 and do it in two bits.

Thanks. I had thought of that, but I'm worried that this might mean risk exceeding the 56mm gap between back of the focal reducer and the focal plane of the camera - hence my preference for a single slimline adaptor.

Baader do a SCT to T adapter that's only 7mm long.
