Guess the Object

I’m going to the Butt Thread

 

Hope you can get everything functioning soon, MG

 

All good, just took a while. I have a full tank of water again and all the hoses are drained properly. Above freezing temperatures coming in a few days, I can't wait .

 

Scale for kitchen

 

Nope

 

Caliper with an analog dial?

 

Nope

 

Timer

 

Trailer life sounds a tad harsh. Stay warm. It’s been damn chilly.

 

Nope

 

Stop watch

 

Thermostat

 

Nope

Nope

 

My first guess was to say it’s a compass but the numbers on the dial aren’t set up like one.
Temperature gauge? Wind speed indicator? Blood pressure gauge? Propane tank pressure meter?

 

Should have gone with your first guess, lol.
It is, in fact, a compass.

 

Now that’s a compass!

 

I’m at work at the moment, someone else please post something in my place

 

Interesting……I spent 6 years setting up timber sales, marking plots of land and estimating timber volumes for the US Forest Service in Wisconsin and the Ozarks. Used a field compass almost everyday. This is by far the most complex compass/ instrument I ever saw. In college I took field surveying classes and worked part time for a land surveyor and anything even remotely this complex would be something we lugged around on a tripod…..cutting brush and vegetation to insure accurate lines of sight.
