A bit of progress made over the weekend. i have cleared out and dismantled the shed that existed on the concrete slab and timed it perfectly so that the people who bought it were able to help. this was no trivial task as the shed was over 6x4 mtrs. probably more importantly, i have made progress with the brains of my observatory. i have completed all the electronic components and housed them in a box which will be mounted in the observatory. this allows remote control of the power, the roof opening and closing as well as emergency closure if rain is detected (which can be overridden if the sensor is wet for whatever reason) and finally a distance sensor which will give me an accurate reading of how far the roof rolled back and whether it is fully open/closed. next steps are to remove the 2 trees seen in the pic and prep the slab for construction. looks like i am still on track to have it completed by the first weekend of July
