picture it: a compass on a gimbal on a goat on a boat........ :-)

AND take note that all the many minute turns and adjustments you make in your own eye contact, in your own body, in relationship to your partner, in time with the music, and in the same space as your set - the picture fits.

My father said it was a tool, maybe a type of drill? I can't remember, unfortunately.

A set of gimbals (rotating supports) are used to support a compass on a goat so that it remains horizontal no matter how much and in which direction the boat is rocking.
