That's a very simple model of a solar cover for my telescope's finderscope.
External diameter of the finderscope is about 57,5mm, so this design is rather tight fit, but it's quite easy to put on thanks to small internal curbs - visible on the slice image.
Baader film can be glued or, as on the photo, taped to the printed element.
I have added a variation with square top so the film does not bend and distort and probably it's easier to glue / tape it.
Print is done with PLA on draft settings - this does not have to be perfect ;-)
Make sure Baader film is well attached so your eyes are safe when searching the sun.
