Hello everyone!
I'm Astroavani and I have my observatory at the back of the yard. It is located in the city of Canoas, southern Brazil, actually 30º south and 51º west of Greenwitch.
It is a simple wooden observatory made entirely by me, measuring 2.50mx 3.0m.
When it was done I had a GSO 12 "Dobs and I never imagined that one day I would have a C14 Edge, so the sides are low measuring just 1.80m in height.
Anyway, here are some photos to give you an idea of the project.

Great obsy there - I'm sure it was a fun project to complete and it makes a nice home for your C14.

Ah the Parsec observatory, mostly for its world class selenography and planetary imaging.
What happened to your old 12" Dob?
Foi vendido a anos amigo Ruud! Desde de 2015 venho usando o C14 no Parsec. Agora estou com um novo projeto para fazer um Newton 317mm f/6 ATM.
Quem sabe ele venha ocupar o lugar do C14 no futuro!!!
