I like the alt-az setting circles you incorporated in your design.

For a similar approach, see:
http://overton.tamu.edu/aset/krajci/
specifically
http://overton.tamu.edu/aset/krajci/dobsonian/dobsonian.htm (the bottom of
the page)

I wrote some QBASIC software to calculate and display alt-az readings.  If
you have a 286 or 386 laptop laying about, you can put it to use...no need
for powerful computers in this application.

If you want the QBASIC software, just ask.  But wait a week, because my
stuff has not yet arrived from Central Asia.
