My new barndoor tracker

Howdy folks. Thought I'd post some pics of the tracker I just made. Cant wait to try it, just as soon as you fella's send some decent weather my way.
I wanted to keep it as cheap as possible, so made a camera mount out of aluminium. Works pretty good. I made the hinge grunty so I could lay a laser pointer along it. 4x1 timber, quarterx20 threaded rod and I think it'll be good for 10-15 accurate minutes of tracking. Can't wait to post my first pics up. Cheers.
