Re: [BlindHandyMan] click ruler or rototmatic ruler
Hi Mickey, It sounds like both these devices take a little effort to get a measurement. Which of the two would you say is faster to use? With most of the things I do, I'm willing to sacrifice accuracy in favor of speed. Thanks. Take care, Ed Przybylek At 06:00 PM 10/19/2006, you wrote: Rob, There really is not a better. As others have said there is an accuracy difference. They both have their advantages and disadvantages. The Clickrule is faster to adjust than the Rotomatic to get your measurement. The Clickrule will do inside measurements more easily than the Rotomatic (in most circumstances), just because of its design. The Rotomatic will lie completely flat against your work piece so that you get better measurements. Because of the 2 stop blocks and the knob on the Clickrule, it won't always be lying right against your workpiece and, therefore, your accuracy may suffer. The clickrule can actually have better than a 1/16 accuracy, especially when transfering measurements. The lock knob can be locked between the detents (which are 1/16 apart) for this added accuracy. The way you read the two devices is a bit different, too. The Rotomatic is read at the 1/2 increments when the raised thread is flush (you just can't feel it) with the edge of the large rectangular nut and the mark is on the same side as the raised 1/2 marks. The Clickrule 1/2 increments are read with the raised thread left so that you can still feel it next to the body of the tool. To check this with either tool: 1. Run the big rectangular nut on the Rotomatic all the way to the zero end of the tool and have it flush with the end with the mark on the same side as the raised 1/2 marks. With the Click rule, flush the end of the threaded piece with the body of the tool (the zero point. 2. Now with the Rotomatic, rotate the large rectangular nut exactly 8 full turns and you will see how it ligns up with the first 1/2 raised mark. On the Clickrule, move the body of the tool exactly 8 clicks to lengthen it and you will see how it aligns with the first raised 1/2 mark. They both use 3/8 diameter extension rods, but the thread of the attaching screw is different between the two rules. They both use a Number 10 screw, but the Rotomatic uses a 10-24 coarse thread and the Clickrule uses a 10-32 fine thread. I have both rules and have changed all of the extension rods to the 10-24 thread, so that all are interchangeable. I, also, make some of my own extension rods which are up to 36 long. I have actually used these tools to well over 20 feet in length. The Clickrule has 2 stop blocks on it so that you can read either up to 6 inches or 12 inches. You will have to remember which stop block you are using for each particular measurement. There is , also, a 1/4 offset that you will have to get used to with both tools. This comes into play depending on which side of the stop block or the rectangular nut you are measuring to. You'll get the hang of it.

It seems to me that it might be helpful if there were files added to the Files Page that contain some of the information that is frequently sought here, regarding where to buy specialized tools. For instance, The subject of where to buy the following things have come up recently. Things like the Clickrule, Rotomatic, talking multimeter, talking tape measure, , and many more items that are either specialized for the blind or extremely blind friendly. Maybe a file could be added for each item, as it comes up on the list and would be there for all , for future reference. For example, there could be a file entitled Where to buy the Clickrule. The body of the file would then contain the appropriate information. Another one could be Where to buy a talking multimeter. And so forth. Another file that might be worthwhile is our current discussion talking about the pros and cons of the Clickrule and the Rotomatic. It would always be there for future reference and we wouldn't have to rewrite it each time the subject comes up. People could be referred to the Files Page for, at least, a first reference. I realize this would take time for someone to do, but it seems to be frequently asked info and might be worth the effort. It would be information specifically geared toward us blind guys, too. Now, please don't anyone get all upset over this suggestion. It is simply a suggestion and nothing more. Thanks-- Mickey -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

So, after I got the clearance from my wife, I checked around a bit and finally bought a small relatively inexpensive one from Harbor Freight. I was able to get the compressor, hose, coupling set, blow gun, 3/8 drill and 3/8 air ratchet for about $160.00, and that includes shipping. And, since I saved us so much money, I'm going to have another 30 amp line put on the breaker box in the basement, which is something else I've wanted for a while.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Seeing is believing
Tom Thanks for the link. My Wife picked up a soldering gun not too long ago and Since there is already one in the house I might as well learn to use it. I am not sure what I would use it for but once I learn how to solder I will find uses.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Seeing is believing
Tom you mentioned that maybe a sighted person watching a film on a blind person doing a task should rather be viewed as Oh so that's how they do it, instead of Wow how amazing. I am paraphrasing hear but another thought I have had and I sure would like to do it is to go to a mechanic school and show people how to do things when the trouble light that they are using is nothing more then trouble My wifes cousin is a much better mechanic then I am but there has been a time or two over at his place when we were working on either my vehichles or his and it was just easier for me to do some thing because I am used to working by feel than he is.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Seeing is believing, Not
I just did something you won't want to include on your video. I am building a bookcase headboard. This afternoon I put the sides, one of the shelves, and a front panel together. Having learned from my mistakes and other people's advise, I measured the diagonals to make sure everything was square. And, amazingly enough, it was. Then I take the piece of quarter inch plywood that will serve as the back to the headboard and lay it down. Oh no, something isn't right! It fits just right at the bottom but is too narrow at the top. After giving it some thought (clearly not enough thought) I realize the top was a quarter inch too long and so forced the sides to spread too far because I screwed them together at each end of the top. Not a problem, I'll just cut a quarter inch off the top piece and everything will be fine. As a matter of fact, the back piece did fit fine. Then I got the bright idea of using a square to make sure all the corners are 90 degrees. As my square informed me that both top corners were greater than 90 degrees, it hit me!! I had somehow messed up when cutting the quarter inch plywood back. The top had been the right length after all. But now it's a quarter inch too short. I should have known when I left for the Post Office without the mail and so had to go back and get it and then left the post office without getting the package waiting for us that it was not a day to put much stock in my ability to think. So, while I might make the blind bloopers, you don't want me on a video made, at least in part, to show sighted people how competent we blind folks really are.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Seeing is believing, Not
May be we could look at it this way. No need to show that we are perfect, because no one is. Blind or sighted. But surely can show that we are capable. Well most of the time. One time Me and some friends replaced a head on a car. They could not get it to fire. I was sure that the cranc shaft and the other part that I think drives the distributer was correct but the can was off. We dragged the car back to my house and over the next couple of days I commence to getting the cam in the correct position. I got the car running and was oh so proud of myself. I was talking to my brother on the phone and as I was talking I found a disconnected wire for the speedometer and in the process of looking at some other things I took off that big air hose that leads to the air cleaner. I think it is called the air ram or some thing. well all was good untill we took it out for a test drive. After the car started on fire and we got that put out, I realized that I did not put that part back in place and it got cautht up in the fan and some how a fire ensude. Not sure what is the moral of the story hear. maybe it is this. Now that you have the head board completed and ready to put in place. don't smoke in bed.

[BlindHandyMan] air tools
I may have mentioned before that I had recently aquired an air impact wrench. It was from a locle give away yahoo group. the post said may need work but could probably be used as is. It was not until I went and bought a half inch to a 3 8ths inch adapter so I would not have to by all new sockets. I went to put the adapter on and discovered that the check ball was sheared off and hence the adapter does not stay locked on. could be very dangerous. Is there a practicle and cost effective way to remmity this? I hate to throw it on the scrap heap but since it was free I am prepared to do so. However reluctently.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Seeing is believing, Not
Ralph, On the other hand, what we want to show is that we do things, and try to do things. Best would be to make them see us as much like themselves, capable of messing up too. when we, at Smith-kettlewell RERC, had a research project that was really a training program to teach blind folks to solder etc. we never criticized anybody for deciding this was something they didn't want to do or couldn't do. we must demand the right to fail also, we're not all 'superblind' All you gotta do is give an honest try, success is not manditory. Now for the good old top stretcher!
