Hi guys,
Been a while since I had posted anything on this project. So here are a few images of the prep work in putting down some concrete and testing of the location of the pier etc.. Since I will not be in the observatory while imaging is taking place, I have decided to do a full slab, which will be around 100mm thick, maybe a little more. I thought while I am at it I will concrete the front of the Observatory also, which always seems to get very muddy when it rains. I am also going to remod my pier to make it a little stronger up top, possibly adding 15-20mm bolts to it for strength.
If all has gone to plan the concrete will be poured on Saturday morning, then I have to wait a bit more before putting the pier in... The Concreting will be done myself and a few friends, so hopefully it will turn out okay. If not, you wont see it in the dark
