Another vote for no way to borrowing for an observatory.Hobby type things I always pay for with any surplus cash- usually second hand and I build things myself whenever I can . Saved I reckon 35k doing the finishing touches for our house extention several years ago. Some tradesmen try to rip you off. No way I would borrow money to be ripped off. If you can do it yourself, you will save 90% of the cost and have the satisfaction of doing it yourself - if you are a scrounger like myself,you can save 95% and so get your observatory for probably 5k + scope + elbow grease.
