Ship's Wheel

This fitting could doubtless be improved, but it's proportions match HMS Acheron's plans closely. It is difficult to tell if all fittings of the same size/function would be of the exact same design. I imagine this had a helm indicator mounted on it, but did not know what this looked like. The wheel is Tone's design, but damn good looking!

This item would likely be brass, with a wooden wheel -- I guessed at Teak, but mahogany is probably better?
