instructions

[Fly Rod]

I purchased a construction calculator for my son in law for Christmas at Home Depot. When he opened the sealed package, the small booklet of instructions was all in Spanish - no other instructions to be found. The packaging was primarily in English. After a return to Home Depot and opening several other packages with a store employee, no english instructions. So I e mailed the manufacturer (Calculated Industries) and received a prompt reply that the booket of english instructions were "under the calculator itself inside the special armidillo strength case" - well returned to Home Depot today - they opened another package and voila - we found the english instructions. No complaint with instructions in two languages - but couldn't they have had them in the same booklet, or better instructions on where to find them? Anyway - just a cautionary note if you're buying one of these units.

I have one of those. It works great.<br /><br /> Ryann it will convert square footage, or running feet to how many roof bundles, sheets of plywood, tons of gravel,Studs,drywall etc.etc. It is a nice time saver when figuring a project.
