Fix Your Whiskey Issues Build a Monster Degausser

So when I installed the Whiskey compass.. She was always showing a heading of 300..

OK the steel half loop was clearly magnetized ... and I just tossed my old Radio Shack VCR degausser / eraser..... last year :<

Going to need a reasonable powerful degausser... So lets build one.. takes about an hour.. She is a MONSTER... She will de-magnetize anything but maybe the engine ! Tape things up nice for electrical shock safety..

Link to the build instructions.. Simple

You can usually find a nice transformer in an older microwave... But anything around 5 lbs will work great.

" She was always showing a heading of 300.. "

Like the man with a broken watch who only knows what time it is twice a day...
