Brad,
I am setting up a workbench for sextant restoration so as to control escaping springs and things and just generally losing bits as does happen.
A bit rusty in such matters but I was amongst other things a licensed aviation instrument tech in my past life but the desired digital dexterity is no where near as good as it once was.
Thanks for all your help, my sextant restoration work to date has been mostly cosmetic, looking forward to really getting into it.
