I have a small collection of slide rules and various other calculating
devices, so this idea intrigues me.

I'd love to see this original post without all the odd replacement 
symbols in it, any chance of getting that from you?  (If you need to,
email me the Word document and I'll convert it.)  If you've got some
ideas on constructing this, let me know, I would love to build something
like this.  I've build a few such things out of stiff paper that I've
printed on, I'd love to work on a TFT calculator!
