This is an old thread but I just got to use John's observatory for a remote setup so thought it best to post some pics.

Inside walls are now insulated and it really helped when it was cold outside.
This is my scope on the left on my home built tripod. The two roof openings work a treat.

Wooden blocks under mine were to get sufficient clearance, and thanks to a few blocks screwed to the bigger ones, I have around 20 deg west and 30deg east, around 30deg north visibility.

Cheers
Alistair
