My next job was fabricating a tilt over telescopic tower to fix to the movable base,
I need to get some height to hit the ends of the arc also i do not want it stuck up air all the time another reason for the tilt over is for working on the lnb, i came up with a design for the telescopic part obviously i need no movement here.

Here in the UK we are limited to the size of dish we can install without planning permission something like a 1.0mtr is allowed thats no good to a hobbyist like me the way round it is to build a movable base. -
