Been a little over a month since turning soil and FINALLY complaining old Mike Sidonio has an observatory again and is out'a the bloody wind!

Imaging comes next

Gotta clean her though...
looks nice n sexy Mike

make sure you seal the dome joints on the outside to stop leaks. and for the record i fully believe the arc min manual alignment sidonio style its awesome
