Check out Roger Fell's web page where he describes his $200 "Starhut" 
observatory:
http://www.agt.net/public/rfell/astro.htm

In addition, Roger is the author of "The Telescopic Companion to the Messier 
Objects" (and the new NGC objects book, too) and a heck of a nice guy from 
Alberta, Canada.

Chin and eyes up!
