[shugtech]

hi folks, I just thought I would introduce myself, my name is Shug, from Greenock, Scotland. Im 40, and have just built a barn door mount for astrophotography. I've been looking forward to trying it for the past 3 weeks, but the weather has been Rubbish!!. 

the mount has a wee stepper motor, driver board and arduino clone.

Ill post some more details about it if any one is interested.

all the best. :-)
