so i have this thing for barometers. this is the guts to a 1949-ish taylor handheld fishing barometer, ebay score out the door under $9. bonus, it’s broken. looks like the tiny thread that’s wound as the spring counter-tension has broken off the cantilever, hanging loose off to the right. a bit small, but an easy fix, i have good tweezers, just have to find my really good old-school nylon thread that will give this lil gem another life. actually, i dont know if it’s 1949. says “copyright 1939, 1946, 1949”. safe to guess it’s older than me at least.
