well ...

this one is quite easy ... I think

I would like a precise answer 😉

P.S.- I'd better start a new WoE thread so that more members can have access to it.

Is it a point/pica converter for printing bureaus?

Geert, If I understand what you are refering to ... I'm afraid not.

Even if you choose not to choose, you still have made a choice

Marlene,

It is not a measuring tool ... but your first attempt is not far from what it is :rolleyes:

Keep trying ... pl

What about waiting for more answers from you or from any other member ?
I asked for a precise answer. 😉

Looks  kinda like a circular slide rule on a theodolite or a or to measure geographical points.

I am afraid not, Doug.
No theodolite or any other geographical tool.

So far the feedback has been HOT but ...

... a hint ... it is a detail of a photo I posted in my gallery and was chosen to be included in the LWITG some time ago.
Does this help ?

Wet bulb slide ruler?

DJB ( ) posted Wed, 12 April 2006 at 1:15 AM

that would be the Castel math slide rule then.

LOL.I have no witty retort for that....coming up blank,here,lol.

All I can think of is that yes,'Castelmath' sounds indeed apropos of Scotland.'Math' is actually a gaelic word...Sigh...My geekiness is showing once again,lol.

And I soooo should shut up now and go to sleep. ;^)

Lol.G'night!

Yep, Castell math ruler allright... I saw it in your gallery; never saw it before ;-) Not the slightest idea what it is for... And even if you told me, I wouldn't understand a word, or letter, or number...

To be "precise" it looks like you have marked out 1 millimeter on this math slide ruler.

You sneak...what a good way to get people to go visit your gallery! :m_tongue2:

Your turn Doug 👍

Yes 'Castell' math slide rule !!!

@ Marlene : not a Castle but 'Castell' the brand 😄
@ girsempa : a Math rule has the same functions of an electronic scientific calculator 😉
@ Kort : that was not my intention but now that you say that I agree it might have that side effect 🆒

TwoPynts ( ) posted Wed, 12 April 2006 at 11:22 AM

Thanks for the full view there Carlos. I can't wait to see what Doug does...probably part of a goose or duck! :m_tongue2:
