Q.
What size of SkyShed do I require for my telescope setup? top The best way to determine the right size for you is measure your telescope's total dimensions when setup on your tripod at the height you usually use it. You'll want a couple of feet around that at least but you need only inches of clearance above it at it's stored position. The size of SkyShed you install may also depend on other factors such as - the size you have room for, local bylaw restrictions, the size of your budget. Our
recommendation is to build the largest SkyShed you can! |
Q.

dollars? top |
Q.
Do I have to use your pier? A. Absolutely not! If you've created a design of your own, we love it. Anything that will stick through a hole in the SkyShed floor will work. If you choose to use one of our piers
we will work closely with you to make sure it works for you. |
Q.
Can I use a concrete pier? A. Absolutely! We prefer steel because they're mobile and can be moved if you change location. Concrete piers can cost considerably less than steel ones but leave a concrete pillar sticking out of the ground when you move on. |
