Unlike other products, POD is not a difficult Do-It-Yourself Project

POD is ready to assemble right out of the box. With just a few basic hand tools, you can have a fully functioning observatory up and operating within a few of hours of POD arriving at your front door. With other domes there's so much work and time needed to build them that some owners never get around to it after owning them for years. Lately there's been a glut of "used" DIY obs for sale that were never built because of the time and hassle involved.

Don't let this happen to you! POD assembles quickly. POD owners often have them assembled and are using them the same day they are delivered. Your ob is of no use to you if it's sitting unassembled in your garage. Not to mention a waste of money.

*If you plan on adding a few POD Bays later, consider doing so at the time of your initial purchase instead. This way you will not only save money on individual Bay purchases, but especially on Bay shipping costs. If added at time of purchase Bays only cost an extra $50.00 each to ship. Purchased later the shipping cost will be at least twice as much.

POD Bays can be shipped 3 in a box, therefore you save a pile on shipping 3 Bays at once compared to shipping one at a time. Shipping one Bay later will cost almost as much as shipping three later. The same applies for extra wall panels.

*POD Shipping costs are extra. See U.S. Shipping Prices Below *Prices are subject to change.
