I like your solution Paul.
Obviously won't work for all setups, but very neat and clever adjustment.

When I had mine, the scale was affixed, but I had a few degrees of adjustment that I could move the pointer to improve accuracy once observing began.

Another thing I tried was to attach a scale to a slightly oversized levelling base. This didn't require cutting a slot in the mount, but it had its own weaknesses.
