Selling my Homedome PD6 observatory. Used and in need of a little work but you can assemble it in an afternoon on your deck or concrete pad. A little buffing will make it shine! Forget about tearing down your scope and mount! When assembled, it protects your astronomy equipment from the elements.
The PD6, six foot dome "tall", is designed for a stand-alone installation, most often on a concrete pad or deck. The dome comes with a 45" high wall with reverse flange, with a built in 19" wide door. The complete dome is 6'10" high at the zenith on the inside. The outside diameter of the wall is 72" and the 3" mounting flange turns to the inside. The shutter is a full 30" wide and opens 12" past the zenith. A new unit retails for over $5700.
It is suitable for use with medium sized German equatorial mount with SCT or a faster refractor or 8-12" fast Dob. Check out the technical innovations Website for details. Could be motorized and automated with some effort.
