Dang. Impressive. My old Keuffel and Esser slide rule couldn't do that, even with fresh batteries.

My K&E is a prized possession. Mahogany with a chamois lined leather case.

Getting slide rule batteries is a neat trick these days. I’ve heard that the same stores that sell blinker fluid often sell them.

As someone that graduated in EE with just a slide rule I see what you did there. Well done.
