Wouldn't it kill the grass anyway?
I rent too, and have gone with a 'sunken' pier, I can put turf back over the top of it when I go, and a cover for the gear that locks down, and run everything remotely from inside the house when it gets cold.

I rent the house I live in so no permanent structures allowed. This was my idea.
Using a 14ft trampoline frame and replacing the springs and mats with yellow tounge flooring, with a bit of frame work underneath. Then to cut a hole in the centre of said flooring. using a 600mm x 600mm concrete paver on the ground and a plinth from a garden supply shop, I can put my Dob on that, so it is independant of the floor.
The trampoline frame has poles that would normally hold up the netting. I replace the netting with something a little heavier.
All up the job comes in under $400. Now I.
just have to work on the pesky roof
Does anyone foresee any problems with this that I have not?
P.S Great site. I've learned a heap just visiting.
