Hi All. I got this Creagh-Osborne march compass a week or so ago. I bought it because of its vintage, & its unusual form. I wasn't ready to see a device that's as big as it is at about 70mm diameter & weighs some 322 grams. I've also discovered there seems to be a small tripod for it. I posted into a couple of forums seeking any possible info & if anyone happened to have the tripod & bearing circle so we can see more detail. Anyway, here are the pics. The ones of the compass alone are mine, the pics with tripod are credited to Compasspedia. Very interested in any info &/or feedback to add to the knowledge base of this item.
Thanks Rob
PS - Pic next to a Verners VIII for comparison. (Sorry- Rather annoyingly, I can't "order" the pics)
