Hi Chris,
I haven't photographed the work set-by-step, but I did
photograph the pier in late June or early July, before the start of the
building itself. It'll probably be sometime next week before I get that
roll developed, as I hope to have some more astro images to get developed
after a dark site trip this weekend :o)
I'll either post a link to the pic or send it to
you with it's dimensions. Unlike your Schmidt observatory, I'm in a light
polluted site. It'll be largely a CCD observatory. Unseasonably hot
temperatures, combined with attacks of acute laziness, have caused me to slip
behind the original construction schedule by quite a bit
<g>.

John, Id like to see a photo of your pier. You
can email it to me privately if you like. Im hoping for the finish in
the end of October, at the end of our monsoon.
Hi Chris,
Looks good!
It's been really interesting to follow your
progress on this observatory project, especially since I've been s-l-o-w-l-y
working on one also. I poured my pier in June, but still haven't put the
walls up yet!!!
Oh well, it's good to see that someone's
"somewhat" on schedule <g>.

Hi
All,
Now that we
are back from Australia, progress is continuing on the new observatory in
Happy Jack in Central Arizona for my 8 inch schmidt camera. We have
just posted some new images of the work completed this weekend, your
comments will be appreciated!
