Well, it's been a while coming but it's here at last. Tonight we rolled the roof half-way off to test the design and measurements and all went well.
It's a converted horse paddock shelter that I have cut off at the waist in effect, lengthened and mounted on a timber floor. It had to house 2 big scopes - my 16 inch Dob and a Meade Maksutov plus the occasional blow-in and heaps of computers, beer fridges etc tc etc. Here are some pics. For those interested, it is roughly 5 x 4 metres in floor area. It'll be a while yet before the scopes move in but I can axtually see this happening whereas 6 months ago I would have laughed at the idea.
