In my earlier post re the fact that there was a twin to Art Horn's Hezzanith on eBay, https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/305435044988 , I mentioned that the eBay iten was mounted on a rather intregueing stand. Has anybody any ideas what the stand might have been used for. Might it have been a surveying 'add-on', or might it have simply been a sextant repairers handy 'hold it' tool. DaveP
