My thoughts exactly...the blueprint/template part, not the far from being an expert part

Here's a look at one of the five inner dials I had machined recently. This is for making the "Pirates 2 & 3" version of the compass.

Guys, I'm really sorry for not replying. I never checked my subscribed threads folder and totally missed your posts...

So, asking for updates you are ... I mean were (anyone still interested?): The friend of mine wasn't working on this project for a while, but started to continue work on the compass about two months ago. He ordered the right wood (I didn't know that wood could be so expensive) and has a new and much improved (the first one was just for fun anyway) prototype in the works. Looks like he will be offering a small run or some made to order compasses, but there will be a dedicated thread in the Junkyard IF that happens. Hope I'll be able to post some pictures soon.

Machining just five of these must have been pretty pricey, but it looks really good. So, what's the status of your hero all wood and metal (and ivory?) compass build?
