Liquid-filled card compasses, assembled by two people in Kendal. Move your cursor — the card settles the way a real one does.
01 — The instrument
One needle. A card. Some oil. Nothing to charge.
360°Degrees printed on the card, clockwise from north, so you read a bearing straight off it.
2°Graduations on the bezel. Fine enough for the fells, coarse enough to read in rain.
0VNo battery, no signal. The needle lines up with the Earth's field, wherever that is today.
The magnetic compass began as a divination device in Han China and was steering Song ships by the 11th century. We just make small ones.From the history, not from us
