Meade ds-80 Telescope Focuser Adapter

I have a very old Meade DS-80 Telescope with and Autostar 497 control, A while back the Star diagonal broke (it is made of cheap plastic). I had no luck finding a replacement and for some reason Meade used a .975 tube to connect the diagonal to the focuser so I created this adapter to attach a standard 1.25 inch diagonal to it. This may work on other Meade telescopes with the 1.25 inch rack and pinion focuser. I added an extender to use the scope for prime focusing I also plan to use a Raspberry Pi camera on it to and use it for lunar astrophotography Sliced using Cura with Arc-Welder Plugin using Octoprint. 2 M3X6mm used to hold the adapter to the Focuser.
