The base is a home made wood platform that was spiked into the sand. A wedge section supported by threaded rods was aligned with the Earth's axis of rotation (an equatorial mount). A 12VDC powered Celestron C-90 mount was attached to that. The mount rotated at a speed matching the sun's (1 rotation/day). A home made bracket attached the Panasonic PV-535 VHS camcorder to the mount. A Sigma VT5 telephoto converter was attached to the front of the camera to get a frame sized image of the sun and eclipse. Finally, a filter made of Roger W. Tuthill's Solar Skreen optical Mylar was put over the lens to capture the entry and exit phases. A small TV was used to view the image being captured. A reticle with circles on it was added to aid in centering the sun's image.

Sunday afternoon Chris Vaccaro, local editor for Sachem Patch and I went out with Ed Silsbe, a community activist with the Tuthills Creek Alliance who is working to establish the "Greenleaf Trail." This multi-use recreational trail would start at the Great South Bay, run along the Sans Souche Ponds between Bayport and Blue Point, through North Patchogue, East Holtsville, and along the LIPA right-of-way north to connect through the "C.L.I.M.B." section of the Setauket Woods to intersect at a right angle with the Setauket to Port Jefferson Station Greenway.
