In carpentry, architecture, and shipbuilding, a compass is a curve (or bent) circular form. A compass plane is a craftsman plane, which has a convex direction length on the underside, for smoothing the concave faces of curved woodwork. A Compass saw (or fret saw or keyhole saw) is a narrow blade a saw that cuts a curve.
Compass is a 'democratic left' pressure group, roughly aligned with the UK Labour Party. It differs from a classic think tank in that it is a membership organisation.
