I was invited to ptovide details about my home brewed Mark-IX calibration station. I did a long paper for those who might be interested by the subject. It as several pictures and comments. I also included the industrial schematic drawing of my sextant housing template for those who would like to have a try with such station. As you will see, it will require you to built in part your equipment though no specific capabilities are needed. Hope you'll enjoy.
For those wondering what is the file "Gabarit..." It's the french translation for template. This file is my Sextant housing template design.
