About this deal

More expensive designs of map measurer that incorporated a dial scale didn’t really appear in any great numbers until the later nineteenth century. From navigational essentials like compasses, map cases and map measurers, to torches and headtorches, right through to clothing essentials like gaiters, walking socks and headwear to keep you warm and dry. Footer】: The rangefinder allows you to quickly calculate the distance by measuring the distance between the two points on the map. So I dismounted that spindle and measuring wheel and put small drop of glue inside of measuring wheel and than assemble it back.

The Silva Map Measurer Plus worked well for four years and two months before failing to measure accurately.Three Points of the Compass has taken a closer look at some particular makes and models of map measurers, including the Silva and Harvey measures mentioned above. But if I do use an analogue map measurer on my paper maps while planning, it forces me to look at the terrain, the twists and turns, the type of country being crossed- across bogs, through woods, traversing moorland, traipsing through the backstreets of towns.

The rangefinder allows you to quickly calculate the distance by measuring the distance between two points on the map. Englishman Edward Russell Morris, of the Morris Patents Engineering Works, High Street, Birmingham, began manufacture of his ‘Patent Chartometer’ in the 1870s, the design being patented in 1873. The extra feature of timing and distance is not really of huge use when variable terrain is being navigated. A must for anyone who does walking, cycling and especially great for people doing expaditions or Duke of Endingburgh.Some mention that it is a very useful device that works very well, while others say that it simply doesn't work properly and failed entirely after 9 months of very light use. The distance calculator will then display a measurement of the length in feet, meters, miles and kilometers. Whether you are on a day hike or a holiday with planned daily target stages you can measure your distance with the Silva Map Measurer Path.

Use the miles / km / nautical miles / yards switch to measure distances in km or in miles or nautical miles. The M-Series represents durable, reliable, high quality navigational aids, which perform flawlessly in even the most demanding of conditions. Chinese unbranded knock-offs of Silva products are inaccurate, cheaply made and often fail to work too quickly. Made almost a century ago, it is still an effective and useful piece of kit that cost me less than a tenner.Calculate the distance of your course so you can tailor your journey to the time you have available so you can get on with enjoying your favourite activities when you arrive. It comes equipped with an easy-handling compass housing, silicon rubber feet for precision map work, luminous marking for the all-important night navigation, a large magnifying lens, GPS and map-measuring scales in mm or inches.

In recent years however, as digital mapping comes to the fore, they have very much fallen out of fashion. A premium quality precision compass for convenient direction taking globally even in demanding conditions.Given a known speed you can then also calculate how long it will take to cover the rest of the trip.
