    Re: The "ИМС-3": a clone of the SOLD KM2 octant
    From: Tony Oz

    Hello!

    Forgot to list the most useful addition I like on my ИМС-3: the drum vernier. Instead of the adjustable brake (the rubber boot in the lower left corner) there is a rubber roller - similarly looking - which may be brought into contact with the inner side of thr drum, the roler has a turning knob - very handy to operate with the thumb of one's right hand. Fine drum adjustments became easy and smooth. (Both the ИАС-1 and ИАС-1М clones have brakes, not too convenient)

    Warm regards,
    Tony
