who wants one of these?

Na much to expensive, you can get a small fiberglass one man observatory for nearly that price.

Wouldn't be hard to build, I was going to tackle one some time ago, I know of a company that will bend aluminium tubes and can weld the fabric, the only thing I didn't do is cost it.

anyone ever try to build something like this?

imagine a whole bunch of these at Lostock sort of like an army of giant Daleks

what a steep price for a glorified tent!!! for that amount of money a pre fabbed trailer could be made, with stablising arms like that of a van, but then why bother?

So to speak.....

But what about one of those Cancer Council beach shelters....if you dug a bit of a hole to put the telescope in.
