M.R.O Observatory Rollers

HI All
Here are the stainless steel rollers ready for mounting into the
housings: http://www.darksky.net.au/news.html
Each central borehole will be fitted with a high density nylon bush for
the stainless steel rods seen to the left. The rods will be able to be
individually removed if I ever need to replace one of these rollers in
the future without any hassles to the roof.
The rating of each wheel is 3 tonnes, but each one will only be asked
to carry about 150 Kgs spread out over all 12 of them.
Roof and rollers go up in a few days.
Cheers,
Bert
