From a Compass Adjuster/repairer of 40 years' experience: The screw that "you never found the purpose of" (@ 10:57) is actually the most important part of the compass. Under it there is a sits a jewel (like a watch jewel) which sits on the central pivot to make sure the compass card can rotate freely. Both the jewel and the pivot point should have been changed as part of the overhaul. A ships compass is never polished. They are always painted a MATT grey or black to avoid glare and sun reflections
Then why make the compass out of brass? At least it looks like brass wouldn't other materials be better if your just gonna put a thick matt coat of paint on top? I don't doubt you at all but I'm just curious.
This is a old compass from H. Iversen Optisk Forretning. The company was located in Trondheim, Norway, and marked its compasses with "T.Hjem". The early compasses made by H. Iversen was named "Neptun". The compass must be from before 1919, since they separated out the compass business that year and discontinued using the name "Neptun". Great video, thanks!
Love it. Still scrolling comments to find an answer for that screw purpose. My guess it's to adjust the level of the compass on the spindle for some reason?
I feel you on this. I just searched for freaking "Liquid ice" and came up with a few hits for a car detailing polish and spent 10 min trying to figure out how t-f to use it when I found your comment.
Nice! This compass was produced by the company H. Iversen, founded 1869 in Trondhjem/Trondheim, Norway. They still exist (under a different name though) selling optics like glasses and binoculars
Lol I was thinking about how this looks like it was raised from the Titanic. I bet he could restore that whole ship single handedly if he only had a container big enough for the rust removal process 😆
Watching these reminds me of in grade school when a kid gave me a broken mechanical pencil and I fixed it then he wanted it back. Edit: According to the court of law (the teacher), he had given ownership unto me, thus the mechanical pencil was therefore mine. I wasn't about to give that thing up. Lmao.
You know, that reminds me of something: I took a tour at the Biltmore Estate a few years back. Our guide explained that bolt connecting the chain on the master chandelier had only been changed once since it was first installed.
But what I don't like is damaging them when screwed back with wrong size screwdriver. Not good! Also I would like to see more attention to details. Nice, but not nice.
You should remove some of the fluid from the compass so that there is an air bubble. The liquid expands and contracts with temperature and without an air bubble it will crack the glass. The air bubble will compress whereas the liquid can't.
As you can see there is a supportneedle in the compassbowl. The compassrose is resting on the needle and the sapphire is a bearing which allows the compassrose to move smootly.
Absolutely great work. I have and always use Teflon square stock that I can freshen up and custom shape when having to pry and punch apart or drive out soft metal and materials, like brass. Never leaves a mark, hard and easily custom shaped. Screw drivers and pry tools always mark up the material. You can use tapered wedges to part and split materials like nobody's business. Once ya use the stuff, you'll keep finding ways to custom up the material.
Although this guy does a great job, it's nothing compared to My Mechanics and TsyTsy Tube. Those guys go all out and their restorations look like brand new products when they're done.
These type of projects seem so daunting to me, especially how to make every screw perfectly in the same exact way every time, but lo and behold, you never fail to satisfy! Thank you good sir for another quality video!
Found this video today. Great Job. The fluid used for a boat compas is usually mineral spirits because it is more stable and has less expantion and contraction and does not attract moisture like alcohal.
It's amazing what WD40 and a high torque screwdriver till do to loosen tight screws etc. So good to see how electrolysis and polishing restored the compass' brass components. That levelling system is called a gimbal. It can be used for stoves in small vessels too. Great restoration work. Congratulations.
The mechanism for keeping it level is called a gimble , they work very well even in rough seas , as ypu showed with your test rig . The bowl would normally be filled with a light oil to help dampen the compass rose otherwise it can move to freely . Quite a rudimenrtary compass without the 360 gegree markins on it , used to know the markings on that one off by hart but forget most of them now
@@OddTinkering great restoration brother. Something i wondered do the longer screws in bezel effect the original calibration? I dont know how precise it was intended to be from the manufacture
Love the compass. Personally I’d leave it shiny because it looks so good. Hope you drained a bit of the liquid out just in case. Great video, you’re one of my favourites.
I felt a little disappointed when you sanded the center dome of the compass an expose the brass I thought that you'll be polishing it btw it also looks good on the way it was but with a gold half sphere in the center looks cooler for me

“oh i have so many new videos to watch, which one should i go with first” *oddtinkering uploads* “i guess that solves it then” XDDD i gotta have my priorities straight
A suggestion if I may..by the looks of it you seem to be using a #1 flathead screwdriver bit for many things where you should be using a #2 which fits the slot far better and reduces your chances of slipping and or stripping out the head. Also, instead of salt, use baking/washing soda. Gives the same level of conductivity without such detrimental effects as salt
The level is called a gimbal,also utilised in the instrumentation for space navigation.They are sometimes also found in other devices,as an auto electronics tech I have come across them from time to time used in various devices. A simple but effective solution.
@UC82UR_Ui7WUOe_4cofC2LKQ Of the devices I have come across using this method one was while investigating the longitudinal,horizontal and lateral acceleration senors on a stability system fault,they are basically measuring up and down and side to side,just like a boat.
@@OddTinkering The less the compass is moving, the better the magnet can align to the earth's magnetic field. That's is also one of the reasons a compass is filled with liquid (to dampen the movement of the magnets inside (the other reason for liquid is to reduce friction between the magnets and the housing in the balancing point).

You should remove some of the fluid from the compass so that there is an air bubble. The liquid expands and contracts with temperature and without an air bubble it will crack the glass. The air bubble will compress whereas the liquid can't.
The bottom of the compass has concentric "corrugations" for this exact purpose, they allow the container to flex as the fluid expands.

The screw in the middle of the compassrose is a bearing. There should be a jewel under the screw. (Like a clock)
Thank you for the info, I'm not experienced with tech like this! Can you elaborate on its purpose, if you don't mind?
As you can see there is a supportneedle in the compassbowl. The compassrose is resting on the needle and the sapphire is a bearing which allows the compassrose to move smootly.
