Thanks for the advice

Hopefully this link will work http://tinyurl.com/6jhzuot

I hopefully would just like to have it working, rather than being
used
for any recordable readings.

.... yes, that link is fine: a wonderful bit of kit! I'd get it up and
running to take readings; bit of a faff to begin with, but once
calibrated etc., it's not too much of a problem: getting hold of the
charts is usually the stumbling block, but George has made some good
suggestions as to sources.

The 'feet' look as if they are sprung - suggesting it was used in an
environment subject to vibration or sudden movements - a marine
environment perhaps?
