"Red" Observatory Construction (2013)

In the beginning ... was the floor - made ​​of old terrace boards





Some materials





Framing





Is my cat an ALIEN ??? :)





Wood impregnation and roof support beam





Wall siding and roof





Done ! I've spent 3 months constructing it. A lot of time, but I was doing it
absolutely alone and I had no experience - I'm a software developer, not a carpenter.

"Cloudy pier" was built in may 2019





Framing





North siding - "another brick in the wall"





Time for roofing





Autumn 2019 - construction completed





The observatories should be properly secured.
Of course I've got the anti-theft alarm systems
but the most important is a diligent and professional
"security chief". Here he is: Atos, alias Tosiek.
