My point is the need for a functional mock-up for the OP. I'm not going to design it for him. If the mock-up works, use it. I have a $125 minimum fee.

I can help him for free, just for fun, but I'm still not sure if it's worth the effort (in terms of the quality of the result) for a ~3mm gain in distance between the lenses.

I should order the parts, cut them at a lathe that is in another location and make an international shipment (more expensive than the parts themselves)...

He could do some tests to see if it's worth the effort or not. The technical solution exists.

So, we're waiting for his opinion.

I just did some measurements. The difference would be ~7mm, not ~3mm. 7mm may have some influence on quality, but still need some tests.
