Owen is doing a great job on the domes.

While not inexpensive, the Sirius product is extremely well made and will last for decades. Mine is now some 35 years old, and while the gelcoat is getting a little thin in places now, otherwise no problems.

Scopedome are also well made, but the revolving "walls" would be a PITA.

I'd strongly recommend if you go down the Sirius path that you also order the pop-out wall storage panel option. (At least two). They free up floor space for your gear, e.g. UPS, PC's etc.
