Dome base ring almost complete.
So, over the last two days I have been work on two parts of the observatory project. This thread is about the final stage of completing the Dome base ring which includes the lamination of the last plywood layer, patching the screw holes and joints with builder's bog, sanding and first coat of 4 or 6 of marine varnish.
Why marine varnish, I thought it was a good idea as it will seal the plywood and give a nice surface finish for the rollers to run on.
Cheers
P.S. I did go around and check and relevel the dome base ring to ensure it is with in tolerance and is somewhat level in all cardinal points. A process I will keep doing until the final plywood cover is applied.
