Southern Hemisphere Drift Alignment Guide - 1st post

Hi to everyone out there

This is my first post and introduction to IIS.

Years of photography, only a few days of astro. I live in Fremantle WA. No view of SCP from my garden and too close to the harbour to look west
currently collecting gear at a good pace...

Taking my time to get under the stars 1) because of the cloud cover recently and 2) because i have just bought an Altas Pro azeq and i'm reading and trying to understand mount setup etc from first principles rather than just hitting "align" on my computer!

Limited web info that i could understand on SCP drift alignment so I thought I would write myself a guide, then I thought I would share it to ask for comments and suggestions possibly with a view to talking it though on a video in Youtube. Apologies, I diddn't look very hard on this forum.

Please think of this as a first draft, you can be brutal I have broad shoulders!

Cheers, hopefully some of you may find this helpful and I will meet some of you in due course.

Will
