update

Quick update I used the stick and the sun, marked out my line and placed my pavers, I only need put my legs in the paver holes and i am near spot on each time, but now my tripod has broken and I am using my camera tripod, a bit shorter but I can still get pretty close, i can find the sigma octans most night in my alignment view finder, but now I am going up to Uluru for a week and need to have a quick way to find the SCP from there. I will let you all know how I go.
From home I can get some decent shots at up to 5 minutes with the camera, no telescope on a good day with the star adventurer.
Thank you all for your help, It has been a while since posting as I don't get out as much as I should, I have bad lungs and cannot go out when it is too cold or when the neighbors are burning bad stuff in their combustion heaters, but I do get out occasionally.
