I see so much on this site and DROOL! But this is how its done in the bush with little funding, and at the end of the day I still love it!
150mm solar scope (pinhole lens and translucent screen in finder / homemade); Bush binocular mount; 12" Dob with a 90mm Mak finder(cause I cant see the 8x50 crosshairs on dark nights, and the grandson can also view the same target through the Mak when I'm on the Dob) The digital compass mounts on the turntable and is used in conjunction with a digital inclinometer. I couldn't afford a DSC so use this with Stellarium. It's rough (cost $53) but it works fairly well. Too damn heavy to move lately so a sliding roof ob is being built, lower half in stone (plentiful/cheap) and a ply over steel two half sliding top. Then there'll a homemade steel wedge mount to replace the wooden Dob base. 114mm binoscope also in design stage.(Just for the fun of it) And I've got the most priceless gift of all......a truly dark site on a quiet no through road, nearest neighbour 1/2km away.
Cheers to all and thank you for the advice and support I've been given.
