Yep - my ToUcam is never leaving my case until someone somewhere comes up with a more bullet proof easy way of polar aligning.
Many of us owe you big time for pointing out this method Paul
Robin, I'm never too proud to write all sorts of notes to myself. I find I drift align remotely only a few times a year, so best thing I ever did was write 5-10 lines reminding myself of the key steps Paul has outlined. I just keep it handy in a Notepad file on the laptop. At the SPSP I got cocky and thought I knew what I was doing - managed to waste 30mins trying to adjust azimuth off a star on the horizon....
