Hi All

I have decided to go back to the drawingboard for the observatory. After visiting Leyburn (thanks Mark, I got a lot from the visit), I have other ideas for the style of roof.

Originally, I had planned on a simple skillion roll-off. Now, having seen some of the structures at Leyburn, I am VERY impressed with the split roofs in an "A" frame style. One side of the roof can be opened at a time, or both can be opened. The roof halves each roll down a 30 to 40 degree incline. Hard to explain, but that is the thrust of it.

Anyway, I am now looking to change the roof. This will set the construction back a few more weeks.

Darrell
