It takes a little more than 3 minutes - maybe 5
. There are just six large plastic nuts that unscrew by hand, & the trusses stay together as a unit (this latter point is key, otherwise you have loose poles rolling everywhere). I will post a pic of it tonight in Omaroo's 'show us your scope' thread on the ATM discussion so you can see how it folds up.
Also I used a lot of foam in its construction cos I am a weakling & don't like to lift heavy things, but I'll discuss that in the thread too.
