Have you had a look at Philip Perkins procedure? Although a tiny bit
lenghty, it is very thorough. Before you print it, just shorten the parts
you know you won't screw up. I like being able to square up the 90 degree
dec. mark on my workbench rather than out in the field. Using the Meade
manual was very frustrating and a little less than useless IMHO!
