I have recently finished a new adaptor for my Canon A95 camera and Swarovski ATS80HD with a 20-60x zoom eye-piece. I have incorporated an integral bracket to support a red-dot sight. A stepping-ring is glued to the end of the adaptor to accept the Canon LA-DC52D adaptor. There is a small piece of sticky-back, coarse fabric placed inside the end of the adaptor to grip on the rubber end of the eye-piece, that so far is effective in keeping the adaptor in place; the other parts of the design should be self-explanatory from the pictures.
The cost of parts (including the machining, but excluding the red-dot sight) was about £70.
I have only taken a few pictures in my back garden, so it's early days in my learning curve!
