I would like to share some images of the construction of my Observatory.(ERO)
The Photos will speak for themselves. It have been a very rewarding project.
It has taken me 2 1/2 years to complete, but I am sure it will provide me with many more years of pleasure - lots of tinkering - automation etc.
I have included a snapshot of the various stages of construction to the present state.
I also have the molds for sale. ( see the IIS classified forum -Telescopes and mounts. I would like to have these molds used again by a keen individual or group of astronomers. I can offer assistance with the CNC cut ply parts that I have used. (I have a CNC Router:))
I have my trusty LX200 Classic installed on a wedge. And a Refractor ready to piggy back. Fantastic not having to setup, align, pack up each night. - a single star sync and I am away:thumbsup:
