Anyways with the rain I am not that focused on astro...the way the grass is growing I can see just mowing for the foreseeable future...plus I really need to finish the new electrical system so I can run a decent computer in the observatory...

My new observatory deck is completed down south ( see my post in DYI Obs ) My NexDome arrives in Melbourne on the 25th Jan then 10 to 12 days in customs then 2 days to my place
So I’m allowing 1 to 2 weeks to assemble Dome, set up mount and scope, power and data outlets , mount and scope cables , led strip lighting with switch , computer workstation and a big of landscaping around the base of the deck
Delivery dates could blow out due to COVID
I ordered the Dome early July 2020
I’m glad I have patience
Hopefully I’ll be up and running by end of February or 1st week of March
