mounting strategy for the dish #64

Closed hcrowl closed 10 years ago

hcrowl commented 10 years ago

Assuming that we mount the telescope on the roof, what do we actually need to do? What sort of footing should be on the bottom of the pipe that the rotator sits on? Where should it be attached to the building? How?

theDarkLard commented 10 years ago

Related to issue #63 , could anybody meet up to discuss these issues tomorrow afternoon? Or evening? Or whenever? @sandycurth @wbuchanan28 @cjalloh @vpascow @Kgespada @edaniszewski

edaniszewski commented 10 years ago

Yup. I should be back on campus sometime by mid-afternoon, so any time after that will work for me.

wbuchanan28 commented 10 years ago

I can't do 2-4 but any other time works.

Pictures up on the wiki for @sandycurth 's plan. We would need to measure up on the roof sometime this week.

sandycurth commented 10 years ago

Are some people free Friday after Science Workshop to go make the necessary measurements? Hugh says that time will work.

wbuchanan28 commented 10 years ago

Yup, any time until 4:30

acencini commented 10 years ago

i have to say i really admire this mounting method. will the base be welded to the angle iron? i like this much better than sticking a masonry block underneath.

wbuchanan28 commented 10 years ago

I believe the base will be welded to the angle iron, @sandycurth can you verify this?

And clarifying, we're meeting at 2 tomorrow?

sandycurth commented 10 years ago

I'm planning to go into the metal shop for a bit tomorrow afternoon to figure out how the dish mount can be constructed. We may even have the materials necessary in the shop to build it tomorrow. If we can do any part of it tomorrow it would be helpful to have at least one other person with me. Can anyone do 4 or 4:30?

cjalloh commented 10 years ago

I can do but only after dinner! Please let me know if that's okay.
