...table of offsets

[paladin]

Just finished deriving a set of offsets from a drawing and now my neck/back izz killing me....but glad I did...three times...made the same boo-boo twice....either that or my rule izzint caibrated correctly.....
someone should invent a device sorta like a compass...drafting style....that you can set to a scale of 3/4 inch-foot or 1 1/2 inch to foot and it reads out elektronikley in feetz-itches-ates..
(and Yes, I know you can do it with a computer) but there's no fun innitt.....

Here's a clue.
Starrett 797 series electronic calipers
Computer Interface Cable to PC (RS232) Cat# PT6260

's gorra be doable.

Davey Baby.....I could design such a device...not a doubt in my mind...with about 4 integrated circuits plus a LCD display and a small PIC processor......but right now I figger life's a bit short fer stuff like that...leave it fer the kids......
