Hi all,

Just a YouTube clip of all my best work, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfFjaVSEAac next year I'm getting right into it.

Nice work Out of interest, do you keep the mount out permanently and keep it under covers or setup each time?

Thanks Adam. I have just been leaving the eq6 wrapped up in towel and a water proof car cover bag over it. Simple and effective for now. Just priced a dome 2.3m for 7 big ones. So I'm thinking ill build an small hut like design just for the setup. I'll post my progress and ideas on the forum. Plan is walk up, plug and play.

Tin shed works for me Daniel. Got an unexpected clear night last night and got in a couple of hours imaging without hassle. Power up, swivel the roof away and start taking pictures.
Just do it !!
