Good dad nice parenting. I no longer have parents, but my wife is a good substitute. I was overseen an managed in this project.pakarinen wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 10:52 am I embedded three concrete blocks in my backyard (garden) lawn when I was a kid for my Sears refractor. Even painted circles around the tripod foot locations so I could align more quickly. I don't think my father was too pleased that I messed up the grass, although he never said anything.
LOL.
