That is one sweet looking observing deck. It appears from the photos you have an unlimited view of the sky.I also like your choice of scopes, I have a 127mm Orion myself and I love it.Again congratulations on a job well done.

Thanks Arpad
Now I just wish the weather would be better so I can do some observing.
One thing I should mention is that I bought this deck used. It was used for display at the local lumber yard and they've had it for around 10 years. They wanted to get rid of it and I made them an offer they couldn't refuse.

Great work! Looks very professional and the thorough documentation will greatly benefit others who embark on a similar project. I'm envious of your unobstructed skyline. You have great views both at night and during the day.
All the best,
Arpad
