There are a number of companies that sell clear thin acrylic sheets that have florescents in a number of different colors. The stuff is also inexpensive. As Nytecam points out, a simple 'screen' placed at the field stop of an eyepiece made out of one of these plastics might really do the job nicely. I've even seen materials that has fluorsecence in the blue so the image will look more natural. - Dave -------------------- Homemade 'scopes 8"f/7,6" f/5", 6"f/4, 4.25" Schief. 60mm Coronagraph,60mm H-alpha system, 4.25" White-light Solar Newtonian,solar spectroscope, 4.5" f/16 Schupmann Medial refractor, 14 Stellafane awards 7 in optics Engineering = Taking what you have and making what you need.
