Observatory Panels

Hi all,

Someone (forgotten who) posted a link to this site on IIS:

http://www.tulsawalk.com/projects/ob...els/index.html

The observatory panels looked like an easy and useful project.

Attached is a pic of the 12" with the "observatory panels".

Made from 25mm plastic pipe, right angle and T fittings, some
duct tape and tarps from the junk shop. Very light, held together
with electrical ties. Works well as a light shield and can be moved
around to any shape. A few old skindiver's lead weights stop it from blowing away. Anything to keep the night vision from being zapped by neighbour's lights.
Cheers, Paul.
