I need to measure it other than by Google Earth..it gives and area of only 750 sqmts and I think it is probably 4 times that..maybe more... anyways this guy is the best worker I have ever run into..he is nearly finished.

The air con in his cab went down poor devil.

Anyways another step forward..plus I cut back my big mount and scope ideas but ordered another eq6 yesterday..thinking of getting another as well and another camera but even so much cheaper than where I was with a 16 inch and appropriate mount and camera.
The one foam panel I put up seems to be holding but the next ones I am going to use contact cement and hard as nails.

I will work out how many cars I can fit and certainly I would be happy for folk to visit for an astronomy weekend...but there is no shower block yet.
Alex
