Default AFOCAL mount at Stellafane

Sorry. All I got was a photograph of the man demonstrating the gadget.
I was more interested in the free focusing software

At Stellafane this past weekend, I came across a guy demonstrating a
device for afocal photography .. it was, appropriately enough, named
AFOCAL something or other.

It seemed to be a very solid aluminum bracket that mounted between the
eyepiece and the focuser. You inserted your eyepiece into the hole in the
bracket, then put the eyepiece into the focuser as normal.

I should have asked for his website when he mentioned he had one .. I thought
I could find it with search engines .. no luck.

I have the ORION device, but I want to get this. Anyone know what this is
or where I can get more info?
