I am home from work today fighting the flu and as such I feel terrible and my brain is not working particularly well...(however, my wife says she can see no difference in my level of brain function/intelligence)

I am interested in putting together and/or buying a light/dew shield for my 8 inch Bintel/GSO Dob...

I tried to read through some of the other posts and got myself a bit lost in the process (I am blaming the flu for my lack of understanding)...hence this post

My basic question is how far should it extend beyond the end of the OTA...

I've read about the foam/bed roll with velcro and that is something that my meagre skills are capable of...

Does anyone sell shields commercially for dobs?

I've found many sites for CATs on the web but not for NEWTs...will a shield for a Cat work?

For those of you who have built/bought one, are there any helpful hints/tips that you can pass on?

Thanks!
