I am preparing for "first light" on a C14 and have wondered about azimuth alignment on those lare fork mounted SCTs. There must be some other solution other than to try and nudge the whole thing. Are there any rigs or devices around that could help? I was thinking about the following:
Putting one leg of the tripod on a "permanant" foot
Putting the next on a metal plate so it can move horizontally
Moving the third in the horizontal (to get azimuth movement) using a threaded rod.
Surely there must be something out there....
