Don Patterson is a high partial so he wouldn't need another measuring device, but that doesn't mean such an item wouldn't be of some help.

Thank you. That is what I suspected. It just sounded like he wasn't using any other measuring tool to set it. I'm sure that it would be easy to use with a Rotomatic or Clickrule. ----- Original Message ----- From: David Ferrin To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2006 5:27 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Accu-rip saw guide I have such a saw guide and it's not that easy to tell what the length is without an accessible measuring device of some kind. It is accurate once it is set though.

He said that it would take sighted assistance to set it up the first time and get it adjusted to the zero point. He went on to say that it was extremely accurate to whatever width you set it after that. Therefore, I have to assume that it has a rule scale on it and this would make sense to me. My question is: Are the markings on the rule scale designed in such a way that a totally blind guy can read the scale and rely on it for his adjustment of the tool? Thanks for any information anyone can provide. ---------- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
