Looks great. How much obstruction would you expect from that treeline?

I've been eyeing these. I presume the pier is physically detached from the concrete pad the rest of the shed sits on? What size is your RoR?

I did do a mount model and searched areas above 35 degrees from the horizon and got a couple of points where trees block the view, if I trim the top of the trees I think I will have 360 degrees above 35 degrees to image.

Yes, the Stoltzfus built the concrete pad and they did do a 5 foot deep mechanically isolated pier detached from the pad. Sorry, what is a RoR? My shed is 12 X 14 feet.

Great size. I was planning something similar. Do you feel you have room for two piers if you wanted? Did you get the warm room? Are you installing a control system? If so, which one? Sorry about all the questions…you’re blazing my trail!

Sorry about all the questions…you’re blazing my trail! Not at all, happy to answer!! I do have room for 2 piers! RIght now, I have a Planewave L-350 on a rolling pier and the other pier is for a second setup. So yes, plenty of room for 2 mounts smaller than an L-350 on a wedge. It might take one L-500 and nothing else. So, depends on which mounts and scopes you have and whether you plan an Eq or Alt/Az setup. I did not get the warm room! I wanted the porch and control it from my home close by. I am debating on which control system to install, I got to put some kind of automation but not worked it out yet. I am ok operating it from home for now via a remote desktop. Feel free to ask anything else!!

Love it! Saw on your profile that you’re in NOVA, so that answers the question of whether they deliver to VA — I’m outside Charlottesville (after 26 years in NOVA). Please post an update when you choose a control system. You’ve inspired me to finally fill out that form on their website. 😬

Oh that is fantastic, yes! They do deliver in NoVA and likely will in Charlottesville as well!! I will do so on the control system. Were there any alternatives you are evaluating?
All the best and so glad you are looking into it now!

The controllers I’m tracking are the Sky Roof from Interactive Astronomy and the Dragonfly from Lunatico. I also talked with some folks at NEAIC that have a startup — darkdragonsastro.com.
