Hi Bill,
... Typically, the faces are about 90 x 15 mm.
That sounds a little large to shoehorn into the sextant optical path, but maybe they could serve.
I have no plans to use them to calibrate my sextants...
Easier than the autocollimator hopscotch shown in your book, though, right?
Cheers,
Peter
