Thanks for the compliments guys. The materials cost far less than the cost of "a bought one" but I did invest hundreds of hours of my own time.

However, the result has made an amazing difference to my observing time. Previously, setting up the LX90 on the tripod on the front lawn would happen about twice a month (if that), whereas now I observe up to three or four times a week (eight times this month so far) and it takes just 5 minutes to be underway.
