  1. Interesting, but they'd have to last a long time to recoup the extra cost in saved electricity, perhaps if the powers that be are serious about saving the planet things like this could be VAT free. Dave
  2. Got bored waiting for the new steeltrack and bought a Moonlight, lovely bit of kit but no graduation scale which is a bit annoying. It is rotatable. Dave
  3. A couple of good YTube videos on fiberglassing stuff if you do a search. Dave
  4. Pulsar dome on this thread but using all Pulsar stuff to electrify dome and shutter which I believe adds an extra couple of thousand pounds on top of the dome price . Dave http://stargazerslounge.com/topic/210602-pulsar-observatories-22m-dome-and-shelyak-dome-tracker/
  5. I used a 12volt ram from these folks for my telescopic pier, may be of use to you. Dave http://www.gimsonrobotics.co.uk/12V-linear-actuators.html
  6. I've used something like this for flat roofs, bit runny so not sure how it will work on sloping surface but very durable. Dave http://www.cfsnet.co.uk/acatalog/1project-roofs.html
  7. These are supposed to work. Ian King may supply them. Dave http://optecinc.com/astronomy/catalog/lepus/index.htm
  8. Revelation 88mm on home made mount on Meade tripod. Dave
  9. Curiously when I used the film SLR I used to take holiday snaps and look forward to developing them myself, maybe weeks later, and seeing holiday memories. Since going digital I simply don't bother any more, if someone wants a snap they can use their phone. Dave
  10. Not sure what's going on now, uninstalled and reinstalled AAF2, manually registered driver OK but now AAF2 doesn't appear in the drop down list or ASCOM profile explorer when it did before. Uninstalled and reinstalled on another laptop and it works, could it be something to do with this being a Bootcamp partition on Mac Book pro ? Dave
  11. Managed to get all my ducks in a row eventually see #701, thanks Dave
  12. Well that didn't take long, must make sure to save this version in case I need to do it again, don't you just love computers Don't know why the installer didn't work unless it's a Bootcamp thing Dave
  13. When you've done that,open the Arduino IDE and click on sketch then on include library in the drop down bit then click add zip library then browse to downloads and select the files. Dave
  14. Have downloaded the one wire and temperature libraries from here ? Dave http://sourceforge.net/projects/arduinoascomfocuser/files/Mark2/Software/V2.4.0/ The ones arrowed
  15. The problem with this MacBook is the diabolical touchpad, the Windows installation ignores clicks on or does something completely different to what's expected, trying to highlight and click on anything is a nightmare Will try again tomorrow, going out to play now. Dave
  16. There is one, but I've tried various combinations of spaces etc. Dave
  17. Tried with / without quotes earlier but will have another try Still get same error message, like it can't find the path If I put the qoutes in it removes them and puts in single ones when it runs ? Dave
  18. Tried all sorts of variations, with / without quotes, with / without chevron, spaces / no spaces / Capitals / lower case. Last time I did this on the previous version it took ten minutes, don't know why it wont work now, damn computers Dave
  19. Latest attempt, don't know why it can't find the path ? Dave or this
  20. Had another go using NET64 regasm and now got a different error message Dave Just noticed a missed x will try again
  21. See my post #668 that's what I've done unless you can spot a coma or something out of place tried putting them all continuos but get the same error message Dave
  22. So I don't need to include "AAF2 Focuser.dll on the end ? as per post #668 Dave
  23. Tried this which worked with previous version on a different laptop but doesn't work on this one, don't know if I'm doing it right Dave
  24. Uninstalled and reinstalled from a new download, this is where I am ATM If I update the driver manually which file do I need to point it to ? Dave
