Members Gezzer Posted June 17, 2023 Author Members Report Posted June 17, 2023 Thanks Chuck . No orienteering but around here if you walk a bearing for 30 minutes most likely you will hit some kind of road or trail . Quote

Wouldn't mind one of those to slip into my shirt pocket when out squirrel hunting in strange country. May God bless, Dwight Quote

Members SUP Posted June 23, 2023 Members Report Posted June 23, 2023 That is nice and a lot more individual than a generic compass in its metal casing. Very nice indeed. Quote
Members ThisIsMyFirstRodeo Posted August 5, 2024 Members Report Posted August 5, 2024 Dude. That… is awesome! So question: I try my hardest not to “steal” someone else’s ideas/designs for my own profit, so would you give me your blessing to use the concept for my side project? I think there could be at least a limited market here (I don’t even have a storefront, real or virtual, just setting a couple displays at 2 or 3 local businesses). But yeah, I really like it! Quote
Members Gezzer Posted August 5, 2024 Author Members Report Posted August 5, 2024 @ThisIsMyFirstRodeo BLESSING GIVEN !!!!!!!!!! Take it and run with it however you want Quote
Members Aventurine Posted August 9, 2024 Members Report Posted August 9, 2024 (edited) I like that a lot. I have a similarly encased old barometer. WWI wristwatches were made much the same way. Edited August 9, 2024 by Aventurine Quote
