16mm Scale Rule

Post by METHSSNIFFER » Mon Apr 12, 2010 7:12 pm

Does anyone know if anyone is producing these at all. I didnt see one at all at the show. There was a guy years ago who sold radius curves with scale rules. Cant remember his name!

That would have been John Angell - I don't think he does them now.

Scale it, print to card, laminate and you have your very own "folding" 16mm ruler :D

Please note the copyright - it belongs to Andy Quirot who freely distributes it from his website http://www.quirot.com/
He only asks that you let him know if you find it useful :D  :D  :D

Just a thought, any chance of moving the 16mm scale ruler into the reference section?

Re Using this!!!

Post by andyquirot1 » Fri Jan 14, 2011 1:16 pm

Hi there,

It is all very well to say please let him know if you find this useful or not. But who asked if it could be copied and put on this web site? I cant see any problems with this, but not even getting an email to say that it is useful or not. But not getting an email to ask if it could be put on this site. I have no problem with you using it, it would just be nice to be asked.

Regards,
Andy Quirot

Well not even a thank you, then.

And as you say in your text; I own the copyright so I would ask you to remove it from your site, please.

Ah-hem!
But not getting an email to ask if it could be put on this site
I mentioned it in one of my Emails to you when asking about wiring diagrams for your "diesel" sound card which you sell on eBay.
You only answered some of my questions anyway, along with a rough sketch, so you didn't seem to be too bothered at the time
- by the look of some of the downloads available on your site (like the "cardboard coaches" which I thought were a benefit of membership to the 16mm Egroup, I may be wrong) you yourself are obviously an advocate of "freedom of information via the world wide web" and besides, how the hell can you copyright something that you didn't invent?

Oh yeah, welcome to the Forum BTW.

Not to worry, I posted it up in the first instance (with what I thought was a reasonable explanation about where the image was from) so I'll assume responsibility for replacing it - watch this space. :roll:

Sorry about the double post, but being a little upset by all this faff I've done a little research.

Under "Copyright Law" and "What cannot be copyright" I found this.......
•Works consisting entirely of information that is common property and containing no original authorship (for example: standard calendars, height and weight charts, tape measures and rulers, and lists or tables.

Very true. You cannot copywrite a scale :? If you could copywrite that ruler you had better get intouch with....Brandbright, Triassic anf polly engineering as I have 16mm scale rulers from all of those! Non have a copywrite on them because it is impossible to copywrite the item. The only thing you could copywrite is a photo of the ruler as this would be an 'original' image
