Slide rules
Alro El A
AL-RO was a company founded in the 1930 by Ir C.J. Dussel & A. Pasveer. Their uniqueness of the circular slide rules was the metal case, which not only protected the metal case, but also acted as a stand for desktop use. At the end of the 1950s the company stopped producing the circular slide rules.
The Oughtred Society made a special article about these circular slide rules in 2006.
The Alro El A has turnable scales and was used for car technics caculations for motor dynamo Amp KW etc. The diameter is 13cm. The metal is aluminium.
