Description: |
This is a pretty cool and gadgety variation on the standard log rule
The rule itself is hollowed out, and a cylindrical member holding a log
table placed inside. One side of the rule has a window cut into it, so
that the table can be seen. Turning the cylinder can show any of a number
of log measures, allowing more than the standard 8 tables to be shown on
a single rule.
