As a 13 year old during the eclipse last year I loved watching the eclipse, but was bummed that there was no way to record it on a phone without maybe damaging the phones camera. So I decided that I would 3D print something for that purpose! This is for my dad's iPhone 6S, but you can mod this for almost any phone.

Glasses

Cut one reflector out of your eclipse glasses like in the pictures. ( I found my glasses in the trash! )

I used Slic3r prusa edition 1.5mm optimal with supports on.

Remove the supports from your print. Slide the eclipse glasses into the top slot on your print.

Take Loads of Pictures

I was not able to take any pictures during the eclipse but here are some pictures, using the device, of the sun on a very bright day!
