Here's just a little taster of what we're talking about. Here's 12 to start with?
There will be more than what i have listed here, but it just goes to show you how many different props there are.
As Charles says, there could be well over 30.

I'd certainly like to see some progress with this as i've discussed this with Charles on a few occasions.
I think ease of use must be a priority in how one would use a "targeting" method. Sounds simple enough.

Charles,
I can design the target and clock face with Autocad and save it as a .dwg file and send it to you, but Autocad is needed for printing it in scale.
I tried and saved a .dwg drawing as an image file (.bmp) that can be opened and printed by any PC, but it prints in a scale different from 1:1.
I could draw the target and clock face and print it here and then send it to you by old paper mail. I would paste two areas as, unlike Flyguy, I have not an A3 printer. One paper piece copies can be had by an A3 photocopier.
Of course finding an Autocad equipped Seaguller would be better.

Thanks for trying anyway Sandro, it's a pity membership of SOS doesn't include a free legal copy of AutoCAD 15 & a months tuition on how to drive it, then the problem would be answered!
Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.

There are cad viewers that are free and do allow you to print. I use one at work.

Not sure if it prints 1:1 scale or not I will check tomorrow if I get time. And remember!!
