Declination Map for US, Laser Engraving

thingiverse

I have always needed to Google my location's approximate declination to use my compass properly. And when no cell service is available... I am left guessing. After recently breaking my compass and replacing it... I had this idea. This is a simple base map made very thin with single vectors overlaid then labeled. The idea was to engrave this very small on the cover of my compass. I needed to accurately place this pattern, since the Cubiio is a bit cumbersome, i made a base mount for it. The gcode is for a Cubiio Laser Engraver, but the SVG can be sized to anything Base Map Credit: https://simplemaps.com/resources/svg-us Laser Engraver: http://cubiio.muherz.com/ Laser Engraver Base Mount: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3489992 Inkscape: https://inkscape.org/ Compass: https://www.suunto.com/en-us/Products/Compasses/Suunto-MC-2-Global1/Suunto-MC-2-G-USGS-Mirror-Compass/
