Re: [ATM] Advice on Solar scopes/observation

Make a blast shield like you see on the front of some of the old
bazookas. The entire tube will then be in a shadow.
12" tube shielded with a 24" square of 1/8" ply which has a 12" hole
smack in the middle. Also provides a light shield for the observer.
