    Star globe
    From: Bill Lionheart

    Well its fine to have Stellarium software  but I would love a star
    globe I can hold in my hands.
    With special reference to the navigational stars.  And constellation
    lines to help orient one self and some course RA/DEC coordinates.
    
    Here is one that is basically polyhedral and printed on card with
    images from stellarium.

    Surely there is some way to do better in this age of laser cutting and
    3D printing?
    
    Or maybe just print out small enough segments that we could glue them
    on a sphere as though it was flat.
    
    Any ideas?
