Keuffel & Esser 68 1100 Deci-Lon - Notes
|
|
|
- This rule was the last of the general purpose rules designed by K&E prior to ceasing slide rule manufacture.
- Names Deci-Lon after the decimal configuration of trigonometric scales introduced by K&E and the pronunciation of
"Ln" symbol for logarithms.
- The stator bars on this model are asymmetric allowing for an increased number of scales on one side of the rule.
- Known as a classic amongst collectors this rule seems to have a wide variety of general purpose scales in a balanced
layout. I certainly doesn't have the most scales or even the most unusual scales.
