Wow thank you guys so much! That makes incredibly much more sense now. I had no clue what the two screws (latituded screws) or the nobs (altitude nobs) did before now, if that gives an indication or my current knowledge
That Wood method seems like something to look into, I happen to have a few pieces of wood lying around that I'm sure dad won't mind me commandeering

cheers for that link niko.
But a big thanks Paul and Adam what you've listed was exactly what I was looking for and couldn't find on the net! I really appreciate the help =]
Thanks a heap,
Casey
