Altitude stickiness fix.

After reading this thread on Cloudy Nights.
http://www.cloudynights.com/ubbthrea.../o/all/fpart/1

And finding I was not entirely happy with the movement in Altitude on my Skywatcher.
I decided to do as in the thread above.

Photo's tell the story. It seems to really work well. Still to do a field test but all seems very good.

This web page has been a great help by the same person.

Hope this helps other with Skywatcher Dob's.
