Hi All,
Heres a website of a guy who has a fabulous observatory setup, remote control, solar powered batteriees, weather station, the works !!!

www.jatobservatory.org/
and click on the image of the dome on the upper left handside of the page,
and all the detail you need is there.

This is the right way to do it !!!!

This guy must have spent some money and a phenominal amount of time getting his setup together...

Its great that he's shared it though. Now, do you think they'd ship an observatory from Oz to Ireland? :lol:

I'd bet they would, these domes are expensive,
but they are the industry standard.
I like the square bays for housing computers and equipment etc..
