    Re: Butterfly Bris Prototype

    Greg -
    
    I've been wanting to try one of these for some time. Are there any
    detailed instructions around? Is there a mail-order source for the
    materials?  (Edmund Scientific, perhaps?)
    
    Thanks. -Hewitt

    original Bris can. I have selected a double waterproof 35mm film case which 
    holds the pair of Butterflies in one side and a folded 8"x11" photocopy of 
    the Pub.249 sun perpetual almanac and sight reduction formulas in the other 
    side.
