2. Take a clear, well-lit photo of it.
3. Upload the photo in the image field for the side you want engraved.

How the Compass Works

This is a mechanical magnetic compass. Release the side lock and the red needle points North. Line it up with the N on the dial to find East, South and West. Lock the needle when not in use to protect it.
