Thanks I figured it out ok. I am a little disappointed in it's accuracy. . When closed the rod is flush with the front. 8 clicks bring the raised part out 1 and 16 inches. There is about a 1/16 inch behind the raised portion and the front of the unit. And 7 clicks have the raised part a little inside. It is not a big deal but not as accurate as my very old rotomatic. It is much easier to improve than design. I also would have made the bar by the knob on one side the same length as the front so you could have it sitting flat for an inside measurement. I would still recommend it to another blind individual. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Hodges" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, January 11, 2010 1:29 PM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] click rule question
Lenny, did you figure the click rule out? What do you think of it so far? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Lenny McHugh Sent: Friday, December 25, 2009 10:50 AM To: handyman-blind Subject: [BlindHandyMan] click rule question Hello and Merry Christmas. I received a click rule for one of my gifts. I don't understand the design of the tool. Under the knob there is a piece of metal that sticks down about a half inch or more. Near the other end there is also a flat piece of metal that is about 1/8 inch. Because of the difference it is impossible to set it level on a surface. How do you work it for an accurate inside measurement? --- Please visit my home page; it is motivational, inspirational and humorous with many resources for the blind. http://www.lennymchugh.com Lenny Please Copy and Paste into New Message to pass along.
