Reply With QuoteNot quite what you asked for, but here's a solar finder I made. It's just an aluminum bracket with a small hole drilled in one end and a target drawn on the other end with a magic marker. It works well.

Need Instructions on making finderscope solar filter
Hi everyone. I made myself an off-set solar filter for my Apertura AD10 DOB but was wondering if anyone could tell me how to make ones or my 8x50 finderscope. Any pictures or instructions would be great. Thank you
