Welcome to Bill D's corner of the net

This website will cover some of my hobbies.  I have been into 3D modelling and rendering, attempted to fly radio controlled helicopters, and even played around with robotics. Nowadays I am into Astro Photography. As it turns out this is my most expensive hobby yet. Having said that I enjoy it alot as it is also one of the most challenging.

Construction Complete

Finally finished construction and painting. She is ready to roll. Over my Christmas break I also did some paving and added trimmings.

SERENITY Observatory is fully functional...  S E R E N I T Y    N O W !!!

She is basically done now and is shown here with the roof trim and first coat of paint.

Here it is with the roof partly open. In this configuration the roof still covers the 'warm room' section. To keep bugs out in summer and warmth in in winter.
Same again from a different angle. If I need to I can open the roof all the way to enjoy the sky on those particularly good nights.
