The cost of this picture (M13 Hercules Cluster) is as follows (not counting the scope, wedge, or other accessories)…

• One pier from durangoskies (about $800 with shipping)
• One shed from thinking-outside (about $700 from a friend)
• Concrete base ($30 for concrete, $100 to rent an auger)
• Misc. items (nuts, bolts, power cord, etc.) — probably another $300
• Total is about $1,900 — could have downloaded a nicer picture for free — but, oh, what a feeling
