Description
Stay oriented in the wild with our Mini Camp Compass, a compact and innovative 3D-printable tool perfect for camping, survival kits, and outdoor adventures. Unlike other 3D-printed compasses that rely on floating in water, this design uses a barrel-shaped pivot system that allows the magnet to freely rotate and point north—all without any liquid!
✅ Featherlight Efficiency: Weighing only 3g, it’s an ultralight addition to any survival kit.
✅ Magnet Magic: Requires just one 10x3mm magnet to function—simple and effective.
✅ Pocket-Sized Power: Less than 14mm tall, it’s easy to carry and store, making it ideal for on-the-go adventurers.
Why You’ll Love It:
- No Water Needed: No need to carry extra liquids or worry about spills.
- Easy to Use: Just place on a smooth, level surface and give it a gentle nudge to align north.
- Versatile Utility: Great for outdoor education, emergency kits, and survival scenarios.
🛠️ How to Build:
Place Magnet: Position the magnet on its side, far from metal or other magnets.

- Snap to North: Gently bump or poke it until it aligns with magnetic north.
- Mark It: Label the north-facing side with a sharpie.
- Start Print: When paused at the magnet insertion point, place the magnet north-side up, then resume printing.
🎯 How to Use:
