Re: [Utah-astronomy] Finder solar filter from welder's glass

Hi Kurt I fashioned a slip on solar filter over my finder scope. I found a piece of tubing that was slightly larger, lined it w/ black paper tape and fitted a piece of Baader solar film over the end, now I can aim and align the scope and slide the filter over the end and center the sun in moments. If you'd like, I can send you a photo. aloha Rob PS solar film is way cheaper than welder's glass too
