Heres some Images of my current set up

Firstly, a general view of the Meade 8 inch LX90 showing the scopestuff piggy back rail (currently supporting a Borg 76mm achro) and the scopestuff counterbalance rail and weight set. You can see the Dew-Not dew heater strips attached to both the main and the piggy back scopes.

General scope and pier view

More detail of the counter-balance rail and weights

General view with roof open showing scopes and 1209 ZIF electric focuser.

LX90 with counterbalance rails and APM 909 at the rear.

Computer to control scope with wireless network to the house. Wireless keyboard with joystick for control from other side of scope.

A little bit of storage for eyepieces, adapters etc. also shows chains supporting roof leaves when open.

Pier and cabling - almost tidy. Contains Mains supply for scope and SBIG camera, USB 2.0 extension lead and hub, long exposure webcam control cable and cable to control scope from computer.

Hard case for LX90 transportation - uses foam mounts from original packaging
