Do you have a marked place you always use ?
Before the Ob I used solar noon to paint a N/S line on the driveway then crossed it with my big square for E/W. Build a small levelling platform that sat on marked points and just placed the tripod on that. Then did the usual aligning process and left things alone. I only ever had to tweak things a little bit after that. A simple drift align at meridian would do it if even required. The levelling 'platform' was just a big 'T' square I made from timber. Just left the tripod legs fully homed and that was it.
