Nice one Shane, good to see this one close up sometimes :thumbsup:. Windy conditions can be very annoying :rolleyes: Before the dome, when it was windy my refractor (http://www.pbase.com/strongmanmike2002/image/81003751/original)wasn't too bad at handling even very strong winds, she could hold her line remarkably well (http://www.pbase.com/strongmanmike2002/image/104169333/original)....but... the 12" Newt (http://www.pbase.com/strongmanmike2002/image/147003522/original)didn't like it at all :scared:
