My platform

#1

Post by Frankskywatcher »


I finally got around to making a platform for my scope now it’s so much easier to move my scope around.
I cut a piece of wood 4 inches bigger than the circumference of the mount that holds my scope. I screwed the wood down to a furniture dolly .
Now I can just wheel it in and out of my garaga to the driveway to observe so much easier now!
