And now we have all the parts working perfectly, here is Harry (11 years old) operating the roof on his own 
It is sooooo easy
We made a really great 12 frame animation but it won't fit in here, so we made one with 5 frames for in here

Ken,
That is brilliant!! We often get carried away with what we want and don't look at what is at hand and what we need. Simple and fantastic

That animation is just great, I bet there is nothing like it anywhere, you should post it across all astronomy forums, it's a winner for sure.
