Maybe for both good idea and good start in executing it? Not to mention the good pic.
At least I'm quite excited to hear how that works out.

Part came in the mail. Unfortunately, there was a thunderstorm today, so I couldn’t go out.

I’ll let you all know on a different post when I start the attempt to track Pluto again.
