Stan Nolte used this slide rule throughout his freshman and sophomore years in the School of Engineering at Arizona State University. He received a B.A. in mathematics in 1975 and an M.S. in computer science in 1980 from the University of Colorado in Boulder. He began his programming career at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, and then worked for several years in small high-tech startup companies before becoming self employed in 1991. He currently consults for the oil and gas exploration industry, and writes PC, Macintosh, and iPhone software for his own company, My Edge Software, LLC.

Note: In 1960, Danforth W. Hagler, who's family ran Georgia Iron Works, Grovetown, Ga., conceived and designed the GIW Hydraulic Slide Rule. His brother Tom, wrote the manual. Before its invention, each engineer in the engineering department had a large, thick notebook with about 100 pages of graphs. The slide rule incorporated many hydraulic pump and pipeline formulas. One side of the slide rule contained engineering formulas involved with performance of a pump while the other side contained everything necessary for pipeline and production calculations.

Scans and Photos Contributed by Vern Estes. This model was sold in the 1964 Estes Industries Model Rocketry Catalog. Vernon Estes founded the company on encouragement from G. Harry Stine, who founded the National Association of Rocketry (NAR) in 1958. A purchase order shows that 200 of these were purchased from Pickett for the catalog. Many youths (including the ISRM Curator) were introduced early to slide rules through the Estes Technical Reports to calculate model rocket performance.

Donated by Prof. Robert C. Eaton, PhD., Boulder, Colorado
Robert C Eaton (1946 - present) used this slide rule starting in his student years in 1963, and throughout his career as a scientist in biophysics. Trained at several different universities in the US & Europe. Worked as research scientist at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and later became a Professor and Department Chair at the Univ. of Colorado at Boulder. Professor Eaton studied the neural control of movement using high-speed film & digital cameras, electrical recordings from brain cells, and computer models of neural network processes. After computers became commonplace, he often surprised students and associates by pulling out this slide rule to do a quick analogue calculation. Robert retired in 2003 and lives in Boulder, Colorado with his wife Katie.

He is retired. Jerry taught courses in drafting, computer-aided design (CAD) and manufacturing. He was coordinator of the coop and internship program for all engineering technology students. "Doc Sweet" is still very active in outreach activities with local school districts.

Original owner: Joe Caballero Gomez, , WWII veteran, Architectural Drafter, trained on the GI Bill, passed this slide rule on to his nephew Rey Moreno in Plano, TX who established www.moredrafting.com
Note: Every year until about 1980 a slide rule competition was held in the State of Texas (US). The contestants had to complete a series of calculations in 30 minutes. As the competition was timed there was a premium on speed but the marking system also required high accuracy. If the answer was accurate to three place of decimals, three points were awarded but if the answer was off by more than 2 places in the third significant figure no marks were awarded. Whilst other rules were allowed, and were used, the Pickett "Texas speed rule" was most popular. Ref: Ron Manley

Pickett Teaching (Classroom size) Slide Rules

Pickett manufactured large slide rules for mounting in class rooms. They came in 4 foot and 7 foot versions. The stock and slide are of plywood (tounge and grooved), the end brackets are sheet aluminum. The cursor consisted of pine with aluminum paint, with a clear plastic lens. Both sizes came with metal eye loops for hanging from a wall or ceiling.
