>> "Compass making NEW FOR 2021"
Really? There isn't a single company making a compass? All those people building specialized electronics for satellites and military aircraft and none of them include a compass in their products? Or does "compass making" only mean the old-fashioned floating needle compasses that were long ago replaced by electronics?

- sandworm101 5y agoBecause I see far too much time/effort/money being spent on the "protection" of certain crafts while more practical things are being left to rot. Tax dollars should only be spent on heritage crafts once the economically-relevant trades are protected. At the moment places like Britain are hemorrhaging tech skills and knowledge.
