thought: roller door

Hi
While I have an observatory (if we can call it that...)
I keep thinking about the next rebuild with proper base and only the roof spinning around etc.

As I have been toying with ideas in my head, it occurred to me that the rolling/sliding cover for the open slit on top of the roof could potentially be a roll up garage door cut to about 1 meter wide, in tracks etc.

could be motorized easily and eliminate the problem of where it goes at "the other end" when you open it.

what do you think , possible?
