Observatory Part 9


I took this picture this evening of the moon rising over the Walnut Ridge observatory.  As you can see, the building shell is pretty much complete with the front weatherboard (a 6 x 1) attached and the doors installed.  I have to adjust the doors to properly align them, but they open quite smoothly.  Here's another shot of the observatory in better light:


There;s still lots to do--I have to install insulation and put up the internal stud and finish walls.  I have lots of caulking to do and, most importantly, I have to build the roll off frame. But for now, I feel quite pleased at the way the building has come out.
