Hi Josh,

I have a 12" dobber that has to be plopped down amongst Sheep poop up the back paddock (best viewing spot).

I have recently played with a bit of astrophotography (hand-held digital camera) and I am hooked.

I was going to build an observatory up the back paddock designed specifically for a dob (low walls) but now I am hooked on photos I intend, one day, to get a tracking mount. I will house the tracker in the obsevatory and carry the dob mount outside for quick easy 'looking around'.

I am going to need a fairly substantial mount for the 12" and don't mind wating coz I can still use 'Dob Mode' while I wait.

Good luck!
