Hi Glenn,

I see where you are having difficulties - you have the orientation of the wedge wrong by 180°. From your first pic, it means turning the whole set up from in the opposite orientation.

The pivot of the RA (azimuth) needs to pointing towards the south celestial pole. As you have it set up, it is pointing in the wrong direction. So what you have pointing North should actually be pointing South.

Alex.
