Making An Ottomani Sun Compass

Over the course of a couple of Saturdays, I thought it would be fun to make an Ottomani Sun Compass. The Ottomani Sun Compass is a relative of the "Shadow Stick Method" for finding an East to West line and from there then knowing which way is North and South. The best part is that it is portable and you do not have to wait for the sun to move thru the sky. In this video, in part one, I cover how I constructed the compass base and the pointer indicator and in part two that immediately follows part one within the same video, I cover how I calibrated the compass using the "Shadow Stick Method" for finding a line East to West. It was a fun project and a good thing to know and practice when improving your direction finding skills. So here is the video. I hope you enjoy it and thank you for watching.
