Thanks for the advice and positive comments.

I will get some anti vibration pads.

I have cut down as many of the overhanging branches that I could get to. The trees in the back ground are 25m high Sydney Blue Gums. i stood on planks on top of the wall with the roof open and then on to a 6' step latter above that reaching up with a pole arm chain saw. Quite scary indeed.

I do have a reasonable outlook to the south and south western sky, with a space between trees to get a section of the north western sky.

Again, not ideal, but it will have to do. So planning what to take and when throughout the year will be my focus. The main aim though, was to have a scope set up and not be moved.

Thanks again for all of your comments. Being new to the hobby, this forum is an excellent place to glean information, and all of the members are so helpful.

Cheers.
