Almost strangely, Aristo/D&P, who made a large selection of SRs for different purposes, doesn't seem to have made 'its own' electronics models (the Hyperbolog...
Hi All, For some time now I have become increasingly irritated with ebay's policy on bidder identification. I can have no complaints about not being able to...
Hi, Graphoplex made the model 698 called "Electronicien" which is a famous slide rule for many collectors. Best Regards Philippe ... From: dfsmth45 To:...
Hey Steve, John, and the gang; While I imagine that the The Aristo 10175 and the Pickett N-515 were meant to be used in the same way by the electronics student...
Do you sell them as well? I am interested in the 266 and or the N16. I have serval Versalogs including the pocket one. Burt I intend on actuallyusing one...
Hi Bruce, No, I don't sell - I'm just a collector. I started collecting about two years ago, and as I have a background in electronics, I have picked up a few...

I don't know how many you have, or whom is responsible, but I could use some to help my kids. I'm a resource assistant in the Giles county Tn. system. Thanks W...
Hello Maynard, as far as I know Nestler started to stop using adjustment screws in 1936. And after 1945 they definitely weren't used for any of their models. ...
Greetings, Karl, I have sent you via other email three photos of the subject slide rule. It is not an LSLO 250-14P but simply 250-14 as you will see in the...
Thanks, Peter, The screws I have in mind are the ones at each end of each laminate. On the face are six, for instance: one at each end of the upper body, one...
Hi, new member here! Glad I found this forum of like-minded people. But I need to pick your collective brains if I may? I have a Faber-Castell 2/83 (no 'N')...
Chris: According to Dieter von Jezierski, all the 2/83 and 63/83 (pocket) models are Novo-Duplex (or Novo-Biplex), with or without the 'N'. The '-Duplex' and...
Hi Chris, For what it's worth I have a 2/83 but it has the older end plates. However on the case and on the instructions it says "Novo Biplex". Same for...
I obtained one of these in very nice condition in an antique store today, but without the instructions. I haven't been able to locate them on line; does...

I expect that many of you are old enough to have the problem I am experiencing in making accurate slide rule settings - my eyes just aren't as good as they...
Steve, I can feel with you... I also suffer to an extent from 'old eyes', although I find my bifocals to do a nice job :-) Yet, I can't stand the common...
Fortunately, I am able to use the "half cylinder magnifiers". I cut off a piece to fit over the cursor and use tape to hold it on the cursor. I have a slide...

Hi John, I've never seen one of those Aristo magnifiers, but it sounds like an ideal solution for use with a single slide rule. I wanted a magnifier that I...
Steve, You're a real artisan. I make do with a quality rectangular hand-held magnifier. I've gotten some good ideas from the responses on this subject, though....
Hi All, I'm looking for a manual for a Ricoh / Relay 156 or Lafayette 99-7128 Decimadyne slide rule. Does anybody know of a link to an online manual or could...

Hi Jodie, I just happen to have one of those! It's too large to upload to the files section, so I'll e-mail it. This is a scan of the manual that came with...
Hello Maynard, yes, these screws should hold the laminate of the slide rule. This was a time and money consuming step in the production of slide rules. And so ...
