red dwalf Posted November 17, 2013 Author Share Posted November 17, 2013 i`m off work for the next 3 days, back to work on Wednesday, so if anyone is bored and wants to come round for a look at the just about finished observatory and keep me company for a few hours your more than welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brantuk Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Excellent idea Rob - I'd be up for that - working from home drives me nuts sometimes so it would be a good idea to take a few hours out and trip on over to see your obsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red dwalf Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 picture of the imaging setup now that everything is finished and fully working, i`ve also upgraded the threaded rods on the pier plates to M12 from the M10 i used to have when i was using the HEQ5 Pro mount to help with the extra weight of the NEQ6 Pro, all seems very stable and solid.
