Alternative polar scope

Hi All, i just purchased an eq5 mount with dual axis drives, without the polar scope.

My question is, would i be able to mount a green lazer pointer inside the tube in place of the polar scope?

With a bit of experimenting with plastic tubes etc, i think i might just be able to do it.

Would this be a better way of getting the mount pointing to where it should be? i really think this will work, as long as i can center the lazer pointer.

Any comments or laughs welcome.
