Slow progress but weatherproof at last

Pity about the rain but hoping for better weather when back from a trip in a few weeks. Will be exciting to actually get some optics installed.


I am very impressed by the occasional blog mention of observatories built in as little as a week. Clearly I have spent too much time head scratching.


Next to automate the dome rotation. I am thinking 3d printed gears, perhaps with the lonely spoon option of a plywood ring gear if the plastic cannot cut it.
