Found the pipesConcrete pipes are needed in order to build a pier to mount the telescope. Appropriate concrete pipes were found at the local cement/pip shop. Each pipe is 1 metre long, with an inside diameter of 28 cm. Cost per pipe is 280 baht. I bought 3, and the delivery van followed us to site.Max&Bee-in-CMJun 19, 2010
