I am aligning the optics in my 6" dobsonian mount telescope and having
a problem, I am using an 8" sonotube

I am using an L bracket mount for the secondary, I thought this was a good
option, but am having second thoughts

I have the primary aligned (needs to be checked again after the secondary
is in), and the focuser is installed and I am trying to put in the
secondary

that is the problem, when I put the secondary in, and align it, it is
impossible to put a screw though the L bracket keeping the bracket aligned,
the tube is so narrow I can't really get enough room to work, is there any
trick to doing this that I am missing, or just giving up to soon?

thanks
