Title: Cubit Ruler and other PMEL related going away gifts
Post by: Velasco on 06-06-2011 -- 18:22:05
Does anyone know where to get one of those granite cubit rulers I have seen many people with for going away gifts? Also any other ideas for great PMEL related going away gifts in the 30-80 dollar range?

Can't help you with the granite cubit, but here are a couple interesting books:

Ideal Metrology In Nature, Art, Religion, & History.
H. G. Wood (1908)

An Important Question In Metrology
Charles Totten (1884)

I thought the cubit was a unit of measure from the end of your fingers to your elbow?
