Manual Filter Wheel Slot Capacity

[mAnKiNd]

Would it be easy to add more slots to the manual filter wheel?

I don't use an electronic filter wheel, I screw a single filter in front of the camera for each session. However, I do currently have up to 15 filters I alternate with, based on the purpose of the imaging session.

I've since a long time now manually edited the file naming templates to include filter names to be written in my FITS files, which helps much with easily organising exposures during the batch stacking post-process - It would be quite convenient to not have to keep updating the names in the nine existing slots before starting a session.

This is a small request and If this is easy to do, I would find it quite helpful.

Thank you kindly for the consideration.

An elegant solution for 'self documenting' captures.
