Celestron C8 locking cap for solar film

thingiverse

This is a remix of the Dew Protection cap for Celestron Edge HD 8" telescope. I used the dew cap as a template for the locking design for this print. It fits into the C8 dust cap locks and fits snugly. I made this specifically so I could add a solar filter without any risk of it falling off the end of the scope. I also used the inner ring divided into 4 segments so that I could glue the filter into place more easily. I personally printed it as a single piece on a 400x400 bed (ender extender) without any difficulty. I also included a split left and right piece for smaller beds :)
