It works, azimuth tuning.

I can fine tune my azimuth drift alignment using the mount adjustment screws on the mount.

Not a rat cage I suppose as the all of the four 8mm plates are bound together by the central mount bolt and fixings top and bottom. More a 25mm thick 100mm square alloy column with a slot, cheaper and more solid than a proprietary pier extension.

I can make the mounting bolt hand tight and loosen or tighten with the captive joined shaft nut and spannner for azimuth adjustment after a quick check of the drift.


Now if I can get this made in stainless with countersunk bolts and a fabricated spanner .....

Thanks for the comments which encourage improvement.
