Baader Hyperion 24mm modular eyepiece

[Moonshed]

Back in 2016 I purchased the above EP for £100 but was disappointed with it because I was unable to bring it into focus, I put it  in the kit with the others and left it there gathering dust.
In 2020 I purchased a ZWO camera so I could image Mars and at the same time also bought a flip mirror box. It only occurred to me tonight that if I used the flip mirror box, with a diagonal, I may be able to bring the EP into focus and observe in a comfortable position.

it worked incredibly well! After using my Bahtinov mask to focus on Betelgeuse I moved down to the Orion Nebula. OMG! I have never seen it in so much detail  through an EP, and such a good FOV. 
To think I wasted all those years because I never gave it enough thought, but I’m a happy bunny now!
