Hi Gene,
Nice piece of kit you're getting there, the wife sure is in for a surprise, but out of curiosity, why not an alt az if she's interested in viewing rather than photography, just wondering what positions the ep would end up in with an eq mount. That being said, the eq6 is a proven mount so you shouldn't have hassles with either.
I went with the washers with superglue to mark the position of the feet once my pa was good enough
And oh, look up the solar noon method for marking n-s. that'll get you very close in one axis.
Look forward to some pics of your setup after they're opened
Cheers
