Overall, very well done, though the inside of the compass should of been black, so that the dial could be seen easier in the dark, with no light reflection at night.
'VEB Geräte- und Reglerwerke Teltow' is indeed the identification of the manufacturing plant. 'Teltow' is the actual place of the factory, located on the outskirts of Berlin. 'VEB' means 'Volkseigener Betrieb' roughly translating to 'State owned business/company/firm'. What it means is, that it was made before the reunification of Germany in 1990 in east Germany (GDR / DDR). It is an analogue pilot boat compass. It would have been integrated into a navigation post on the bridge of any decent mid size boat. The ones I know of were attached to a cylindrical housing about waist-high and in such a way that it could spin / rotate on all free axis. These were mass produced and exported or used by other Soviet aligned states. It is a nice piece you got there and it turned out well. Good work! Greetings from Germany.
Yep. And that also means anything with "Made in West Germany" printed on it is at least 32 years old. Like some of the parts on my ancient BMW motorcycle.
Was it military? I only ask because it''s rather nice brass work, and I know from my father that brass work was painted over on ships in wartime. Saved him a lot of polishing.
This is a amazing naval/maritime Compass. The two axis allows the compass to stay stabilized even in houghest seas. Congratulations for the job, its awesome!!!
It looks great! I think the original flat black components where to make the white dial stand out with minimal light source during night operation and to minimizing glass glare. Narragansett Bay
Nicely done! I like the way you built the rest of the gimbal for the compass. For use on a vessel, you want the housing to be black inside. The diaphragm in the bottom is designed to move with expansion of the missing compass fluid. That’s why there is an “O” ring seal, as well as a washer under the knurled nut. You can make DIY fluid using a mixture of mineral spirits and liquid paraffin lamp oil. 50:50 ratio is probably fine. Thanks for sharing👍
So many comments already so forgive me if it was already mentioned, but it needs to be filled with fluid. Mineral spirits works well. Great job on the project, I did one a few months ago.
Your finished product looks nice. If you heard screaming from across the planet it was me when you took sand paper to the brass parts and a wire wheel to the lead part...
Looks great but was curious after seeing you cleaning the counter and seeing the aerosolized dust if it was lead, also was any of the parts coated with iridium or any other radioactive material to make it glow?
4:03 Раз есть сильфон, значит компас был заполнен жидкостью. Сильфон - это дорго богато - обычно просто резиновая мембрана на тех, что подешевле. Компенсирует расширение/сжатие жидкости при разных температурах. Жидкость предотвращает вибрацию и дрожание указателя и делает его вращение плавным.
When you showed what liquid you were putting it, I had to goggle it. I was raised on the water and was my understanding it was just mineral spirits. And not surprised I was wrong LOL But have never heard of water with it but understand after reading why. But my dad and others I knew always said only mineral spirits. Great restoration and an excellent job building the base!!! Enjoyed your video and Thumbs Up
The counterweight is actually a component of the Gimbal. It allowed the compass itself to stay steady despite the ships movement, so navigation would be accurate even on storm tossed seas. Erm... I'm a geek! 🙃
It is more likely, but not certain, that it means 2996th unit of 1966. Usually, but of course not always, east German serial numbers were structured like that.
Magnetic compasses do not use lead, at least not those I am familiar with. My guess is that the ring is made of steel and is adjustable so the compass deviation can be adjusted. If you think of the big steel balls on a binacle compass. Another indication it isn't lead is that it could be sanded. My guess is lead would clog the sandpaper.

5:40. In no export, but I was disappointed you didn't try to remove the debts and scratches in the 3 pieces BEFORE painting them. The compass still looks good in the end, but I think it would've looked a bit better if you sanded the dents out. Just my opinion. Great video.
Désolé, je vais être critique, je ne critique pas le travail effectué mais pour moi cette vidéo c'est juste une remise en état avec un coup de peinture cache misère. Dommage cette boussole a le potentiel pour une très belle restauration.
@@antvo1162 Эта гармошка нужна для компенсации давления внутри компаса. Так как он полностью герметичен, жидкость внутри будет расширяться/сужаться, в зависимости от внешней температуры. Думаю если бы не было компенсации этого давления, это негативно повлияло бы на работоспособность компаса.
The compass was used in various climates, including those with low air temperatures. I think that in severe frost, alcohol as a filler will be preferable.

Interesting!
You restorations are beautiful but your sense of humor and sarcasm are top notch 😅😅😅😂😂. I love it
Excellent job! I personally love old compasses. I have all kinds of them. They still fascinate me from the simplest to the advanced.
I’m sure you already know this but the reason it was black was to reduce the reflection and make it easier to see when you’re actually on a boat
Разобрать и покрасить..вау. Ожидал большего от вас👍🏻
@Де А посмотрите канал моя механика(на английском) и оцените его подход к реставрации чего бы то не было.. данное видео нельзя назвать реставрацией
@@ВладимирЩеглов-ц7ь my thoughts Exactly. His attention to detail is much more.
Oggetto bellissimo! Complimenti per il lavoro di restauro!
Grazie per la visione e per il tuo supporto!
Dirty work. The internal perfectionist of mine is crying.
great idea of using gyroscopic method for this navigation compass!
👍👍👍
That compass turned out super!
Great talent you have and amazing! Like to watch. Good luck 😸🤞

Looks amazing with those new colors
Slecht en veel te ruw herstelwerk. Dit had veel mooier en netter afgewerkt kunnen worden. Jammer
Wow, old fashioned compass .thanks for sharing technical vlog. Gift
Amazing skill
Superb work! Love the new stand 👏
👍👍👍
Wonderful job. Congratulations from Brazil.

Very nice DDR historic compass! Good quality!

ps : boussole is the pocket size mostly used on land thanks for sharing : )
Your finished product looks nice. If you heard screaming from across the planet it was me when you took sand paper to the brass parts and a wire wheel to the lead part...
Awesome job you did restoring that compass. It looks like a ship compass because of the balance on the pivot screws. Great work.
Boa tarde, linda a idéia. Parabéns trabalho finalizando e bonito 👏
Muy bonita y buen trabajo.
¡Gracias por el apoyo!
I am from India 🇮🇳 and i subscribed.wish all the best for future projects.i hope you will reach 1M subscribers soon
Very cool device and nice restoration.
The case of a compass is never bright and shiny. It needs a contrast to the compass disk so that it can be read at night. Nice work vor the stand .

beautiful restoration project 🌠💞
The compass looks amazing.
Nicely done ✅

Very nice work…well done…

Outstanding! I have a lifeboat compass made during WWII by Lionel (Yes, the model RR company) that could stand refurbishment.
Molto bella! Bravoo!

Хотел похаять за методы обработки, но результат понравился, так что лайк!
Looks like a ship’s compass to me too. Sailed enough boats to recognise a marine compass.
Спасибо за труды !! Такую вещь восстановили 👍👍👍
Outstanding…
На радиацию перед разборкой проверил?
Ага, со старыми приборами нередко шли шкалы с СПД
Very cool
Looks great, well done.👍
Excellent!

The 66/2996 probably means that is the 66th compass out of 2996 manufactured.
I came up with the same idea
It is more likely, but not certain, that it means 2996th unit of 1966. Usually, but of course not always, east German serial numbers were structured like that.
Aiding and abetting the enemy by repairing their compass? I see where this is going. Your shelf of finished projects!
1:23 heavy as lead, 5:23 soft as lead, probably toxic as lead, because it is lead.
Magnetic compasses do not use lead, at least not those I am familiar with. My guess is that the ring is made of steel and is adjustable so the compass deviation can be adjusted. If you think of the big steel balls on a binacle compass. Another indication it isn't lead is that it could be sanded. My guess is lead would clog the sandpaper.

You didn find same screws?
Super tare.

I wonder if the glow in the dark dial is radioactive Radium?
Yeah. Be careful with that!
Awesome restoration!

Keren bos good job👍👍👍👍👍👍😁🇲🇨☕
These ship compasses were the FIRST GIMBALS WAY WAY before gimbals were even a THING!!!!
The bellows allows for atmospheric pressure change.
Did you fill with water or mineral oil?
NEVER fill a compass with water . Mineral oil or alcohol .
There is room for improvement! A little tip by the way - perfect restoration can be found at "my mechanics".
show. parabéns

Use Mousu black on the inside next time.
Компас морской ГДР жидкостный спиртовой. Приблизительно выпускался с 1951 годов
Спасибо за пояснения!
А для чего была предусмотрена та латунная гармошка с ниппелем на дне?
@@antvo1162 Эта гармошка нужна для компенсации давления внутри компаса. Так как он полностью герметичен, жидкость внутри будет расширяться/сужаться, в зависимости от внешней температуры. Думаю если бы не было компенсации этого давления, это негативно повлияло бы на работоспособность компаса.
12:01 I would have thought mineral oil would be the filler of choice. Or would that be to viscous?
