Does anyone know of other options to make a camera lens into a telescope? There are only a couple of these not-produced-anymore "Kenko Lens2scope Adapters" available to buy online but maybe there are other still in production items I'm not aware of.

I'm assuming you put glass into it. How'd you figure out how to make it work properly?

It was just something from thingiverse so you could put a 1.25" eyepiece up to a Canon EF lens I think

I'll look into that for sure. Sounds like it could work great
