Tall pier advice
Living on a tight residential block I do have a good spot to permanently mount my scope at the side of my south facing garage.
My thought is to build a platform approx 1800 on the side of the garage which will eventually be encased in a structure and a slide off roof.
issue is the pier. There is an exiting concrete slab that was to house a water tank that I can build on but the effective height of the peir would need to be around the 2 meter tall, possibly a tad higher.
Anyone out there done this and if so what did you use. I have seen a couple of American sites that use what they call chimney blocks which are around 400 square. The plan is to build the pier and then the structure around ti without touching.
Advice appeciated.
Cheers
Rainsey
