I totally forgot viewing implements until this morning... so no opportunity to get glasses and no suitable (empty) cardboard boxes available.
What I do have is an abundance of scrap wood.
It’s gonna get heavy, but it should work.
I’m actually thinking of just taping my phone to it...

Welders planning to observe the solar eclipse may or may not be in luck, as some welding filters will adequately protect your eyes from the sun. But, please, double-check to make sure that the goggles you intend to use are the right kind.
“There is a particular circumstance in which it’s safe,” Fienberg said. “We don’t recommend it because it’s too easy to get the wrong kind of welding filter.” Only goggles made for electric arc welding can be used to observe the sun, and they must have a shade scale number of 12 or higher. Shade 13 is ideal for solar viewing, but that shade is typically not sold in stores, Fienberg added.
