This compass lives above the back door at Monticello -- it's connected to the weather vane on the roof so Jefferson could see which direction the wind was blowing from the doorway.

The Jeep Compass was introduced by DaimlerChrysler in 2006. It's about the same size as the Jeep Patriot but has a more cross-over like styling. This is pre-facelift model built until 2011 with a front end in the style of the Wrangler.
Love the detail in the compass...makes me want to create a whole room full of scientific victorian items...

day fourteen of the December photo challenge: movement. I don't know why stuffed buns needed a compass, but it was there, and I photographed it.
This is the holder for the compass. I've sanded it smooth once and then I painted it with a thin layer of resin. I'll sand it smooth again and then paint it with varnish.

Some much-needed nice weather and a nice subject to shoot out west. Three shots stitched together & some processing. Hope you like it, feedback welcome.
Goop added and so is pressure. I had to add a few more things to prevent it from sliding forwards since it sits on an angle. The pressure is downwards and then it moves slowly towards the front. Even when I pulled the string backwards.
I checked the level of the pressure bar (the piece of wood) and compared it with the jig. They were the same so I hope it's level. The compass have a lot of room to move around in the housing but I'll be annoyed if I can see that it's not strait.
I wanted to recess the compass a bit so it wouldn't hit everything. Now only half of the compass is above the deck and I'll glue a piece of carbon sheet on top of it to protect it a bit more.
I know this will collect water but I hope it wont be too bad. I had thought of trying it out first but then I forgot as I was building and suddenly it was glued to the deck. I'm very pleased with the shape of the recess.
I had an idea for a project and ordered about 150 compasses, each came individually wrapped and this is the one and only that actually worked. I tested them all over several days with magnets to see if the needle would move. I tried putting magnets on the nonworking ones to see if they'd been demagnitized. After cracking open a few I discovered they were lacking the teeny piece of iron on the needle. I'm not sure what to do with them now.

S789NRV is a Caetano Compass bodied Dennis Dart SLF new in January 1999 to Frodingham Coaches, I had the pleasure of delivering it to EYMS on Armistice Day 2001 on the takeover of the Frodingham business when it became 318 in the EY fleet. It initially worked at Bridlington depot, followed by a time at Scarborough, later transferring to Hull, although it has been a spare bus loaned out to other depots, spent various spells delicenced and even been loaned to Whittles and on the sales list, but it still soldiers on . As a forty seat bus fitted with seat belts it is useful for a variety of duties, it is seen looking smart on Hull local route 62 to Setting Dyke Estate on Priory Road.

The compass rotates (on its own) to find north, unless you've got a giant hunk of magnetic material nearby.
