The new astronomy....sorry.......... coffee table

 To accompany the garden chairs, we need a folding coffee table. Having just invested in a new telescope, which will be used on the terrace in the upper garden area, the furniture will forthwith become known as the 'astronomy' furniture. Hence it isn't a coffee table - its an astronomy table. 

I may even smuggle it onto Bryony our motorhome!

Putting in the cross struts on the coffee table top

Sanding done on the top - time to sand all edges and the base

  2. Thank you - it will be used for coffee and then all the bits and pieces of telescope work - star atlas, camera, lenses, eyepieces, head torches and lots more.

    I would love to have the starry skies you have in Italy but sadly we have too much light pollution. But, I am fortunate that I can escape to a few dark sky areas within 2 hrs drive of where i live and for this I am very lucky.
