Cost of Compass Swinging
One recent discussion on here reminded me that I haven't swung my compass in more than 5 years. I haven't notice any inaccuracy, but I thought maybe it's time to do it again.

I was shocked to get a bid of 270 pounds (more than $400). Wow! What have others paid for this service recently?

Since I do have a deviation chart, maybe I'll just try to do it myself just to run a check, rather than laying out this kind of cash. Does anyone here swing his own compass?
