That's great Ian!
I think, however, that my design is slightly different. My roof doesn't roll off - the entire shed rolls off! Also, I am building mine in an area (side of house) only 900mm wide and will be viewing "over" and "along" the roof line of my house). I get a FOV window 25 deg E, Full zenith, 315 deg w (not much south though!). This equates to 4 hours of imaging/viewing time along the celestial equatorial line.

Thats why I couldnt build a wide stay put shed, but had to design it to completely roll off the scope/pier.

Wish I had more room like you! I plan on a wireless setup so I can go inside on cold nights!
