Thank you Ottos,
I like it very much and I would like to use it for my calculations... The problem is that I am from the "electronic generation"... Is there a good tutorial on how to use it for submarine purposes?

Bye,
Mith

try google with 'aristo sliderule manual' and you should find several tutorials/explanations.

This site has an easy course about how to read sliderules; manuals in pdf also.

http://sliderulemuseum.com/

and here you can find emulators to practise out of the game...

Very interesting stuff...
