Restoration and Repair of an old German Compass. The most Beautiful compass STAND.
I found this old German compass at a flea market. There were no identification marks on it, only one inscription in German: "VEB Geräte- und Reglerwerke Teltow" I could not determine the year of its release, if you know, write me about it in the comments.
The compass was outwardly in fairly good condition, although rather dirty, with various stains. Several brass screws were missing, the compass fluid was missing, and the compass itself was misaligned. I don't really like the Bakelite look of such an interesting thing, so I decided to repaint it. Pre-cleaned the entire surface with fine sandpaper, and then degreased. Painted in three layers with drying.
I also made a stand for the compass, with the possibility of free swing.
The most difficult stage of the repair, for me, is filling the compass with liquid. The outlet is very small, and the displaced air greatly interfered with pouring liquid into the case. I poured an alcohol solution into the compass so that it would not freeze. It took quite a while, especially to get rid of all the tiny bubbles.
But I still really enjoyed working with this interesting thing, and I also liked my compass stand, now it sits very nicely on the shelf with the rest of my finished projects
Take care and see you next week. Sincerely, Max.
