    Mk 1 & MK 111 compass parts

    Hi
    I am after some help, I have a broken needle from a T&G Mk 1 compass.
    If I cannot find a spare I will have to make one up, can you tell me what material was used,it may be copper or aluminium or another material.
    Also I have broken the card on my Mk 111 compass ,not my lucky day to find both broken items would the Buy and Sell section be the best place.

    Thanks

    Michael

    Only ferrous metals are attracted to or by magnets/magnetism. Compass parts are likely steel vs iron.
    I'd be thinking one or the other of browningautorifleicon's links. Highly unlikely you'll find compass parts anywhere else.
    Spelling and Grammar count!
