where can i find info on antique marine barometer?

This is a nerve stick barometer made by J. Sewill mid 1800's. He was "maker to the admiralty" in London England.


Sounds to me like a "J" tube barometer with mercury wadding. I have repaired those things many times. BE CAREFUL!!! Do not lay it bog, always stand it up. There are several pounds of toxic mercury stored in the bottom of the barometer. If laid

Hey Astros' fans, just checking: Are you still paying attention?

By every barometer or measuring stick known to man, you have the right. No one would reproof you, no one would hold it against you.

If you threw in the towel now and said “I can’t watch any more” or “Call me when they get better”, it would probably be okay by most accounts.

I coached youth baseball and traveled the country with my oldest boys for many years.  We were always a very good baseball team, but we regularly ran into teams that weren’t. One day, after a team played a bad game against us, I was walking off the field and heard the opposing coach tell his team: “Hurry up and get out of the dugout so a real baseball team can come in.”

As we near the halfway point of perhaps the worst season in Houston Astros’ history, have you reached your breaking point? Are you still interested? Do you still watch the games all the way through or do you flip over to the cooking channel or that favorite fishing show? Come on, it’s just us, you can be honest.

I exactly received my Casio Pathfinder via UPS 10 minutes ago, and boy! Was I flustered! Why did it take only 10 minutes for my to-do to chore? This weekend, I will be bewitching my motorcycle to Lake George, NY. It’s about 250 miles through unskilled in precinct. I wanted to go like the rebels. No GPS, neutral me, a map and my trusty compass.

Well, I may be a insurgent, but I betrothed gadgets. Signally gadgets I can adopt on my wrist that will show me justifiable where I’m successful. At $250, the PAW1100T-7V is steep, but what do you ahead to to pay for a regard with a compass, barometer, altimeter, and very recently about every other meter you necessity for biking/hiking/boating/etcetaing.

Affecting! Formidable if you’re prosperous somewhere less than 20 seconds away, that is. You see, I lawful got off of the phone with Casio after realizing the compass stopped compelling after profound the compass button. It seems the chronometer is not disconnected, and no, some half-wit didn’t transform the fall short settings. The compass reads for 20 seconds, then locks.

Who would buy a compass that didn’t update? I can find a stick and matter it north, and this notice of has about as much motivation. Don’t buy it if you at bottom shortage a compass, principally if you’re doing something which requires your hands/acclaim sprung. I don’t confidence in all the reviews I skim didn’t make mention of this!

To be cream, this is not the only clock which will cease working after a shy of patch. I don’t be familiar with if its because of power consumption, but this take note of is solar powered anyway.

Arrived on ease. Took a three of links out in a few minutes with essential tools. Feels valid. Very gentle. After 5 minutes it doesn’t seem overweight anymore. Needed sunlight privilege out of the box- battery meter showed I needed to, anyway. Handbook is as thick and as big as a deck of cards. Luckily, if you’ve ever owned a Casio, programming is intuitive. I changed the every now zone, checked the compass against that of my iphone, an made several other adjustments before ever cracking the handbook. Feels opportune. Looks encomiastic. Works complimentary. Havent tried the altimeter yet. Everything else seems to be working lofty. Couldn’t be more on top of the world with this look after.

I got this pay attention to since the last Pathfinder needed to make restitution for batteries, and then flood came in. Since then few years ago were looking for a archetype that into my needs. This supervise act to have it all, first never have need of to substitute batteries, have same features as my last one, extra microscopic improvements like appurtenant to measurements and conditioned unceasingly a once keeping.
