One of the most noticeable things with my first solar attempt that was pointed out to me by the helpful people on the solar forums was the classic Newtons Rings showing up in all their glory.
In reading about these I read one of the best ways to get rid of them would be to install a Interference Eliminator T-Adapter.
Well, these components are fairly expensive for something so simple looking that I just cannot get myself to fork that out for something I could make myself.
So today I fired up my Solidworks program and designed up an adapter in which I made 6 versions at different angles from 0 to 5 degrees of offset. These adapters also have 42mm threads in both ends (I have a male-to-male adapter ring already).
Once the design was completed, I sent it to my 3D printer for fabrication.
The result as you see fits perfect and I was able to pull on the male-to-male adapter ring as hard as I could (before mounting to the scope of course) and it does not strip out the threads. This was
