I was trying my sun filter I am going to use tomorrow. I thought this one was neat. I am kind of bummed out. My plans to use my telescope fell through. The drive motor is not strong enough to hold the camera and the filter up in position. I am going to try and make a brace for it tomorrow morning.

Do you have it balanced with a counterweight of some sort?

No counter weight yet. I do have something that should work perfect thought.

Got an old speaker? Pop the magnet on the scope as a counter balance.
I put together a baader filter for my camera today.
