Ok I haven't got pictures yet but his construction was to weld up a frame of square tube steel welded together in a hexagonal shape with colourbond on the exterior. He made a folding cover that covers a slit opening that comes through from just past zenith to some point down the side of the observatory.
The base of the observatory in on wheels and runs in a rail set in concrete so the whole observatory rotates.
I can explain better if this isn't enough to start with
