Sam,
I have the sextant exactly framed by foam so there is no space between foam and sextant. Keep a few inches of foam between the sextant and the case sides so that a dropped case will have the sextant fully cushioned.

Thanks for the ideas. Can you suggest how much foam to place between the sextant while it lies horizontal?
