Threading the film…
Can you teach the internet something new? I decided to ask three of the world's biggest AI systems the same question about an old Silva Mark 5 induction compass. Between them, they've probably read millions of books, articles and websites... yet not one could explain what these mysterious curved lines on the bezel are actually for. Two confidently gave completely wrong answers. One simply admitted it didn't know. In this video, I'll explain what those curved lines really do, why they existed, and why almost nobody seems to know their original purpose anymore. By the end of the video, you'll know something that (until now) wasn't explained anywhere on the internet. Well... it is now. 😄
