  • You have me laughing over here.

    It’s more ergonomic for the reason that it’s an easier, more natural viewing angle that puts less strain or stress on the body to view/use it. You don’t necessarily have to agree with that, or yuck someone else’s yum. Most of your issues are preference.

    Did you miss the part where I said I wasn’t a fan of the leather implementation? Because that would rule out most of those points.

    Have an upvote for the effort, though!

    While I’m not a fan of the leather implementation, I have to both agree that it’s a placement improvement in terms of ergonomics, and it does look pretty cool. I think it might wear out faster, being exposed to the gripping area of your palm, though. I’d expect it to be difficult to wash your hands or handle dirty/sharp items.







  • Every single one of my machines is set up to run metric so I don’t have to constantly convert 64’s and 8’s and thou’s fractional units between denominators, which is exactly why I’d rather type .0254mm than 1/1000. I absolutely cannot stand using different fractional denominators or that a foot is divided by 12, but everything else isn’t. You’ve probably used it for years and are used to it, but approaching it with a rational mind seems like unnecessary work and risk of miscalculation.

    Every number I use can easily be interchanged for another unit.
