8 Vignettes
The series of short vignettes presented here include stories on the use of certain slide rules and scales, on certain sub-groupings of the Collection’s contents, and on the adventure of collecting. The stories can be read in book form by pressing the ->

arrow keys, but to skip directly to a particular vignette click on a link below or in the sidebar.
The vignettes are organized with new slide rule enthusiasts in mind, and so are not necessarily presented in the order in which they were written. But if you haven’t visited the site for a while, here are the latest entries:
