Being based in Canada has its advantages. Unfortunately, one of those is not Nasa producing things specific to your province or country. Failing to find a nice, flat, model of Ontario or Canada, I made this eclipse viewer out of the old Toronto Maple Leafs sign. Designed to print on the MP select mini, it will fit on a 120 x 120 mm build plate.
Instructions: Just keep your back to the sun, hold the plate ~1-1.5 m off the ground, and you will see the sun projected onto the ground through the 5mm hole. Try taking a picture including the plate, your shadow, and the view of the sun reflected on the ground. I know I will! Will be uploading a picture of it in action after tomorrow. Sorry if it's a bit late!
