Shed for Telescope

[Astrosurf]

Have any of you bought a shed suitable for storing a telescope? I'm not interested in one for observing, just for storing the scope with the tripod set up. It's a Skywatcher 8" with HEQ5 mount. I know I started another thread for a weatherproof home, but this is a permanent one! If I can buy one ready-made that would be good!

Any chance of some dimensions Alex?

I guess taking the scope off the mount would allow for a smaller "shed" but be less convenient...

You can get soem "slimline" ones that can be fitted against a wall...

S&N magazine had an article a few years ago concerning the conversion of a small plastic B&Q-type shed to a telescope shelter. If you want a scan of it PM me.
