And I'm glad to see you went with degees and miniutes for the scales.

Hewitt,
If I can get an acceptable prototype, then the magic of 3D printing means that I can make as many as I need - and with zero chance of left-over inventory. My Monday-to-Friday work has been getting in the way of slide rule fun lately. I will for sure keep you, and NavList generally, in the loop once I have something suitable in hand.
Bob
