Another observatory planned was created by Bruno
Hi All,
After many "will I? won't I?" moments I have decided to go ahead with a permanent set up. First stage was checking out some suitable sheds for conversion to a roll off roof. I think a flat roof may be easier to convert and I have drawn up some plans on my website www.imageorion.com/observatory

Any advice on this approach would be welcome.

Hi Ronan,
In Glasnevin,Dublin. Glad you like it. I felt it would be easier to build a flat roof rather than an Apex. not many flat roof designs on the web.

Regards
John

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.
