..one of those kitset garden sheds to an Observatory?
I have gained approval from my lovely wife to go ahead as long as I don't do anything silly, she said she knew it was going to happen eventually. Love her !!
And it will get the mount\scope out of the lounge where it lives at present.
I have spotted a deal for a 1.8 x 2.7 meter with a sloping flat roof which I think could be converted to roll/slide off leaving an 500mm overhang over a work bench at one end for PC etc and the mount at the other. My question is can the roll/slide off roof be made to happen. I'll have to go and look at one when I get a chance but price is quite good for the size and it has a decent hinged door, not one of those silly slide things..
I reckon the roof assembly would be so light I could just put teflon or nylon strips along the top rail of the walls and just pull it off. I guess I am wondering how stable the walls would be although I can add some strengthening bars and corner bracing easily enough. ( Just about talked myself into it haven't I ?)
SkySlab is looking more likely every day.
