Mockup of my cannon wheels, I mean... altitude trunions. They look pretty good for rough start, still plenty of finishing work to do to get the final look a lot nicer.

Now that I have the trunions sized and mocked up I can get the measurements to make the rest of the Dob base.

Overall length is around 2300mm and very top heavy. I need to have the rocker box extraordinarily tall as the weight is all in the lens. It will be a very odd looking scope for those who are used to the bottom heavy nature of most Dobsonians.
