I have a Dobsonian telescope and I get so frustrated at the length of time it takes me to find the Sun.
Is there an easier way than the shadow method which I currently use?

I will appreciate and be grateful for any help, thank you.
What I have done is made a small sun filter to fit over my finder scope,
Works simple.
Cheers
