Speaking Of Phone Apps - Fraction Calculator Plus
Mike's mention of the level app on his phone reminded me of an app I found a few months
ago and have been using quite often for my bookcase project. Fraction Calculator Plus The app puts 3 keypads on the screen so that you can directly enter the integer portion, the numerator and the denominator. 1 15/32 + 3 5/8 = 5 3/32 If you want, you can tap a button to see a scratchpad type screen showing a "handwritten" breakdown of the steps required to get the answer. That screen also shows you the decimal version of the answer, e.g. 5.09375 |

My old "scientific" calculator uses one keypand and has you push a button between each part. If you want, you can tap a button to see a scratchpad type screen showing a "handwritten" breakdown of the steps required to get the answer. That screen also shows you the decimal version of the answer, e.g. 5.09375 If it could only convert yards to meters and inches to mm, my wife would love it (she needs both fractions and those conversions for (writing) sewing patterns). Elijah ------ made her a chart of inches to cm/mm from 1/8" to 5" |

Works just like the calculates you see at HD and Lowes and much less expensive. |

I'll check the one you are pointing out. This is the one I am using. https://www.calculated.com/prd473/Me...r-Pro-App.html Since I use a lot of Festool I can easily convert imperial into metric and visa versa. |

I have an app called stud finder. I tried to open it to get more info to share and got message that the developer needs to update it to work on current version of
iOS. When I used it last year it worked well. |

Coworker used a level on his phone to make sure that some posters we hung in the office were level. They looked crooked. More investigation revealed that (according to his phone anyway) the whole building is about 2 degrees out of plumb. |

One of the first things I had to do was use the calibration function. ;-) Funny, my shelves were about 2 degrees out before calibration. I wonder if I can turn that line in camera mode so it goes straight up and down. It'd be great for checking whether a post is plumb or not.
