I was looking for a quick means to polar align my new mount as it came with a Northern hemisphere PAS and not one for the Southern Hemisphere. I got sick and tired of drift aligning each time.

Thet really do work after aligning using a bubble level and compass, I looked through the 8x50 spotter scope, saw sigma octons etc, roughly adjusted the mount, looked through the main scope and touched up the aligment as per the diagram which resulted in 2.5 hr at 10mm eyepiece with NO drift.
Took 5 min to do
TRY IT you will love it
