Markus,
I think this constitutes cruel and unusual punishment. I mean I would probably consider giving you lifetime indentured servitude just to own the guide scope on that monster. We can all dream but there you sit with a Cheshire cat smile as well you should. So where do you go from here?-smile!
BTW that is an interesting design for a Observatory. I have not seen anything like it before. Who manufactures it? Seriously thanks for the photo.
R/S,
Dan
