I had a visit from new IIS member Scott (Skullmurphy user id) who has recently acquired a new Orion XX14 Goto dob. Scott wanted to look at how I made my dob wheel barrow handles as he is trying to come up with a design that will work with the vertical supports on the side of the Orion. Scott is located nearby (Caves Beach) and still hasn't managed to get first light through his new scope due to the rain and cloud.
The reason for that information is that Scott expressed an interest in coming out to Bretti and asked about the next trip. All I could tell him with certainty is that we'll probably be out there at the end of August but to watch this (and the other) Bretti threads for news. He seems to be able to go for more than just a weekend which is always good.
Anyway Scott if your reading this, welcome to IIS and it was nice to meet you and hear about your Orion. Watch this space for Bretti news.
