Solar film arrived. Spent about 3 hours finally getting a smooth finished cell (well nearly) which slips inside the lightsheild of the 80 mm. I can then use the front cap with it's smaller centre hole if I need to cut the aperture down.
The cell just slides down inside the lightsheild, no way will it get blown off or knocked. Just need some sun to test it out now, it's been total cloud cover or rain from the last three days.
I'll be working that day obviously so might bring the scope into work and do a wee bit of 'Outreach' at the same time. Just got to get the clouds to cooperate.
