Chasing Desert Ghosts: Ep. 1 Sun Compass 

Thank you, New York Istanbul Short Film Festival for selection into your gala! #newyorkistanbulshortfilmfestival

Brilliant Marty...getting better every time!

That was a great watch! Video quality is excellent... really draws you into the desert landscape.

Great work, Martin! This is so very cool! Amazes me.

I was pointed in this direction by Bill, and wasn't disappointed! Despite the 'Topless in the Sand' being most likely to get clicks - this was my most enjoyed video from the Sahara series. Keep hunting down those artifacts!

Wow Fantastic effort Well done to everyone 👏

Superb video, really enjoyed it.

Good job, Sir. Sorry I wasn't with you on the trip. & congrats to Bill and his colleagues for building a fantastic replica compass. 🤠

That was really interesting. Hats off to the intellect of those that first thought of this and to the skill of those that replicated it. Well done.

Well done! Very impressed how accurate the replica compasses are 👏

Very interesting video thanks for sharing it 👍🏼

Interesting. Back around 2003 an Australian called Dominic Kaukas got in contact with the IWM and they allowed him to measure and copy their sun compass. He produced 15 and apparently they are indistinguishable from the real thing. Kuno Gross' book The Bagnold Sun Compass is a wealth of information plus he gives instructions on how to make your own "Blue Peter" version in cardboard - no sticky back plastic involved but you might need adult supervision with the scissors!

just great where can i get one made?
