Progress Update

Getting near the end now (well at least the external structure). The walls are now primed and ready for the final colour. The wall joint flashing is ready to go on and I have started making the door. I test mount of the NEQ6 and 10" Newt proved all my measurements were ok with good clearance all around. The scope does have to be rotated on the RA to clear the sliding roof, but I prefer that to having to deal with construction and sealing a hatch in the front of the roof. An unforseen advantage of the steeper slope of the skillion roof is that it blocks off a street light further up the hill. The walls are 1500mm high. Need to get started on digging the trench for the power cables.
