Perkil8r Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 Very nice, how many times did you swear whilst doing the roof? ;-) just the once but it lasted about half an hour I'm quite pleased so far, not looking forward to the tricky contours though, but we shall see. At least the roof is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perkil8r Posted November 24, 2013 Author Share Posted November 24, 2013 A bit more, took longer than I expected as it was a bit tricky but that's the worst over with I think for now. The trim fillers are going to be fiddly though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cazz Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Another half hour swearing session lol. It's looking really good Mike, you'll be getting a sun canopy next. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Altair Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 This is such a cool project! You should come to Kelling Heath sometime to see Mike's caravan with mini dome! Can't miss it N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brantuk Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Yes Mike has a pier in his caravan that extends through the floor to stand on the ground. When he reverses it onto a pitch he tries to polar align the caravan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Type-R Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 and I thought polar aligning a dob was bad........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perkil8r Posted December 29, 2013 Author Share Posted December 29, 2013 I have finished the carpeting some time ago now. The floor is not done in this pic, I need to get some better pics taken I guess. Hope to get the table test fitted tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perkil8r Posted January 26, 2014 Author Share Posted January 26, 2014 Finally got the cushions done and the lights wired in. Total spend just shy of £100, exact figure unsure but I estimate around £96 or so, possibly a little less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+RonC Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Where are you fitting the optics (drinks not astro!) and a Hobgoblin bin?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perkil8r Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 No pics but have now finished the wiring and paneled the sliding door, it now closes with a rather nice thud rather than a tinny echo rattle ring. Just waiting for a clear night to get on up to Belper to test this bad boy out in anger. Next comes the fitting out of the rear part for transporting scopes and cooking. Where are you fitting the optics (drinks not astro!) and a Hobgoblin bin?? I've decided against optics but I may have to invest in a pump for a keg of HG, it'll be far better on draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
