Got an old tin garden shed u don't use much ? Easy to change to a roll off with some pine and alsynite ? Lots of them on here and here's a useful link to some others i used.

ok will look at link, the problem isnt general design I have rheems of drawings I just want someone to build it. all new ready to stuff telescope inside.

Rang a shed place that "specialises in one off designs" and they didnt want to know. 20k for a fully functional sirius or equivilent is over the top and skypods are cramped and unavailable in Aus anyway.

If memory serves me correctly there was an add in the Sunday Times Readers Mart under T for telescope a few weeks ago. It was a Sirius 2.3 metre dome with 8" Meade SCT for less than 10k$. You could make enquieries with ASWA also.
