Fraction calculator for Woodworking

Post by Diane Kauffmds »

For those with whom math doesn't come naturally, I found an app that's perfect for Woodworking and guitar building. It's called FRACTIONAL CALCULATOR PLUS and you can find it in the app store for your phone.

It's set up very intuitively. I've taken a screenshot of a calculation. Let's say you need to find center of a 1 3/4" nut. You simply input the numbers exactly as you would write them. The answer gives you a fraction so you can use your ruler. Right above the fraction is the decimal form of the answer, which is used with calipers.

Thanks Diane. I've heard that nine out of seven people have difficulty with fractions.
