Cheap Compass *Pic*

I found this compass in the auto dept. at Walmart for $2.25. The ball section is 1 1/2" and the suctions cup holds it on. It also floats. The suction cup could be glued on and the compass pulled out of the cup and stored until it is to be used. It can be mounted in any direction.
