Derek,

Thanks. I hope your back is feeling better. I cheat somewhat as I do not need to setup my gear. It is housed in a roll off roof. Permanent polar alignment. It's what fixes those bad backs!

Regards,

Thank you Fay. I have a system that works and I stick with it. It's not for everyone, but then again each of us offer something unique. I hope you will add a personal touch to your work as well.
