Today I went to the dollar store for essentials(soap and the like) and walked out with a glass candle holder (which looks like a space age hockey puck) and a small mirror. Two dollars bought all that I needed to fabricate a half mirrored fixed angle sextant. It is a perfect coffee table conversation piece/paper weight at the very least. The sun shows nicely but the design is really intended for the moon which I will be trying this evening. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Navigation List archive: www.fer3.com/arc To post, email NavList@fer3.com To , email NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
