Have to admit thats the stupidest design for a filter wheel to load a large number of filters. Why doesnt someone think outside the box for a new design such as a slightly thicker holder wherein the filters flip out into the light path from a station on the side. Three stations and three filters would be enough and with good machining easier to do than having a great big blob of aluminium hanging off the back of your focusser. Just looks like bad design to me.
