Finally, has anyone built a platform allowing for easy rotation of the panels? Early in the day, I would like to point the panels toward the rising sun and then move them toward the south before leaving our campsite.
Maybe start with a Lazy Susan base & go from there ?
Once the top & bottom sizes are determined, lock it down & drill holes on the outer perimeter of the top section going completely through the top & to the bottom section, about 1/4" deep into the bottom. You'd only need a couple of holes into the bottom, as the top would rotate around & line up with those couple holes. Use 1/4" by xx length pin to lock in place. Configure the panel supports & tilt as needed.
