On another note, found the lower latitude (higher degree) there is a limit to how low in the north sky you can see. I have removed the eyepiece board on the front of the DOB to allow complete range of movement, but still have limited view North but not much fortunately.

I think it is important to mention this because this may affect peoples intention to build this and may find it better to build an EQ platform for a more complete view.
