Solar Film Filter Mod on Davis MK 3 Sextant

The standard blue filter on a Davis MK 3 sextant can be replaced with cut to fit astronomy solar film for a very sharp sun image. Remove old filter by carefully pushing out the blue filter with thumbs and saving the plastic retainer to snap back in onto a piece of solar film that is cut to fit using the original filter as a template.
