Backyard observatory installed

There are still many small things that must be done, but the main structure of my backyard observatory incl. the pedestal, has been installed by Nick Evans of www.alexandersobservatories.com.
Here Nick is putting the floor on the concrete slabs.





Here I'm cutting the construction plates. It was going nicely until the circular saw started jamming. That's because you have an electrician doing an carptenters' job.....:-).





Here's the finished observatory. I really like it, together with the sturdy 8" pedestal. Tomorrow I have to finish many small things with the cabling to the pedestal, power supply, wood finishing and stuff like that, but the basic structure is there.
Thanks for this really nice backyard observatory Nick!
