Great video Tim, tks for taking the time. It was extremely useful. I made a slight modification which I think made it easier cutting the film. Instead of cutting the film in a circular manner and using the kiinex, I cut it in a square, but keeping the protecting paper that comes with the film while cutting it. It was a breeze, I didn't even have to use the gloves. Other than that, I followed all your recommendations from the video.

Not sure how I ended up here but this video is pretty sweet. Cheers

I found this video very helpful. I just made my solar filter using the same film from Baader. Thank you!

Great video; clear and concise. Thanks!

Thanks so much. Looks like I'll be trying this method for my one lens today...hope to nail it. I have a filter for my 67mm lens ready for Monday. Amazon sent be a cracked 95mm filter for my Sigma lens..., no time to get a new one. SMH!

Tim, now you have the telescope and camera ready for the sun, but I am wondering about any prep you may be doing for video/sound recording of your surroundings. Days short of my 74th birthday, this will be my first totality, and all my life I have heard about the reactions of our non-human friends (crickets chirping, cocks crowing, etc.). That is the experience of the eclipse I am really looking forward to (hope we don't get rain!). Any tips?

Hey, you turned the tilter around this time haha

Where can I buy solar film?
