Nautical Brass
Monday, September 5th, 2011
Where can I find a very small, very stout and very nice compass?
I’m making a purple heart walking stick with ebony capped ends.
I want to inset a very stout, very small and very nice compass in the top.
Something brass, 1″ in diameter or smaller and has to withstand freezing temperatures.
I’ve seen ‘em before, and the looked pretty nautical, but I can’t find ‘em for the life of me now.
I’m putting tons of work into this staff so topping it off with a cheese compass isn’t an option.
It’s gotta be nice.
Any ideas?
I can’t find anything on those links to that fit my dimensions and wants.
1″, preferably smaller, diameter
brass
High Quality build
no plastic
impact resistant
almost like a jewelry item but quite utilitarian
I’ve seen them. I know they are out there.
seattles – That’s the closest thing that I’ve seen so far. Pretty nice stuff.
They still aren’t the really high quality micro ones.
One of the places given should be able to help.
