This time it was DONE!

The sextant, although five feet tall was in my view still a bit underwhelming. The table top was a little low. The fix was easy. I quickly built four compass points files in EnRoute and sent them to the MultiCam. While the machine worked in the back room I started fabbing up the plywood box that would provide the structure.

As each point of the compass came off the router I sculpted them into place. I liked it much better already. Everything was coming together nicely.

This time I was truly happy. The sextant now measured more than 6 feet high and was an imposing display piece in the library. After six years of procrastination it was done! Without the use of my MultiCam router it would have taken far, far longer - if it was even possible. With the machine working hard for me the job was relatively quick and easy. It did the hard parts while I concentrated on the creative, fun stuff.
