Telegizmo Scope Cover

I received my new telescope cover the other day, it is a "Telegizmo" brand cover, I bought from Highpoint Scientific in the US for around USD$50. The model I got was the TG2D which is supposed to be for 10" and 12" dobs (but I suspect you could get both a 10" AND a 12" dob under there together ). It seems very well made from some kind of "Space Age" material - "multi-layer, polyethylene material with a fully aluminized surface" - developed by NASA, it's red inside). Has a draw string at the bottom and as you can see covers the entire scope including the rocker box and has enough room to park it vertical or down to at least 60 degree angle. Looks like it will do the job quite nicely!
