ED80 Solar Filter

thingiverse

This is a solar filter designed specifically for the Orion ED80 f/7.5 doublet APO refractor. It will likely work perfectly with a few other 80mm scopes, but I can't confirm this. The aperture is 60mm. Ideally, I would have made it larger, but I was working with some leftover solar film from a much bigger filter for another scope. That's what I had to deal with. It would be easy to expand the opening if you want. I'll try to remember to upload the STEP file so anyone who wants to modify the model can do just that. Materials Used: -8 m3 bolts -8 m3 nuts -16 m3 washers -Super glue -Baader Solar Film
