Dome automisation

Thought I would do an update on the observatory with a few pictures. The first shows a modest amount of landscaping - eventually some of the shrubs will grow up.
Next are two interior shots of the dome remote control which is working beautifully under Ascom control. It also shows the storm cleats that I fitted as well as the dome track that the motor turns.
Then a shot of the scope and cable control around the scopes so that I dont trip over cables.
Whats not shown are the webcams around the dome to show scope attitude so that when remote desking I can see if the mount is getting close to the cameras etc.
