"Rental" Observatory

Hi All,

Change the location of the topic previously under ATM and DIY. I have started a remote control observatory and title means it is designed for a rental property.

I have completed a slab strong enough to mount the pier and found at auction a table that had a small amount of water damage. (Although I can't find it).

I am now at the stage awaiting for the metal plate for welding which I hope will arrive next week and currently sealing the table with a marine sealer so it can remain in the weather. A lot to do on the mechanical front and on the electrical front working on the automated processes.

I doubt I will get it done before I start Uni but hope that after I start the rest of the work will be relatively easy. I really miss imagining so this is to be design to reduce the amount of setting up and pulling down as possible while being portable enough to move when I move.
