Hi, Jeff :D Thanks for your comment! Oh, really? I just looked up it in "google images", "compass" and "bow compass" are pretty different: bow compass compass
And it seems "bow compass" is a better term for the stuff that the drawing is talking about, what do you think?
We always just called it a "compass." I never heard the term bow compass before but that seems right. You learn something new every day.

Hi, Mr Mars:
ReplyDeleteWell, the word compass is used for those two different things. (It's usually clear from the context which one someone is talking about.)
I think the term bow compass is better also. :)
Oh, I see. I didn't know something about "context", sounds complex, you know, I'm from the Mars, haha. Thanks for figuring it out!
