Description

8' x 8' backyard observatory built by me from scratch. Roof closes like a clam shell to imitate a simple garden shed. Houses a 8" round reinforced concrete pier with a Ioptron GEM45 mount. Since it's a continuous pour pier into a 24" x 24" x 24" square weighing 1200 lbs, it doesn't move. Steady as a rock wind or no. Have yet to wire it. Will install an inner wall soon. Installed inner wall last month.
