Wow, sportzjunkie isn't playin' around..... nice bit of work there pal.
...and thanks for that gift there PHArchivist.
As long as we're posting our compasses, here's a little something I whipped up for one of the random pirates at Disneyland...
This compass just had to be different than Jack's, nothing too fancy. I pulled the compass from the toy and stuck it in a wood box, added a clasp and some lid detail and 30 minutes later, it was done.
Although I didn't use it, a good material to use for the lid lining is bookcloth. It has that same texture as leather and you can generally find it on the covers of various drawing journals and cheap portfolios found at art supply stores.
