ED80 Solar Filter

This is a solar filter made for the Orion ED80 f/7.5 doublet APO. It would likely work fine with a few other 80mm refractors, but I can not confirm this. The aperture is 60mm. I would like to have made it larger, but I was using some solar film I had left over after making a much larger filter for another scope. 60mm is what I had to work with. It would be simple to widen the opening if you would like. I’ll try to remember to upload the STEP file for anyone who wishes to modify the model.

Materials Used:

-8 m3 bolts
-8 m3 nuts
-16 m3 washers
