Thank you for your inquiry. When you turn the calculator over, you'll notice four small screws. Remove the two screws beneath the hinge with a small screwdriver.

Model 44080 v3 is the number on mine. This, I assume, is the most recent version.
There are no issues because this is a larger version of the smaller one. This is primarily intended for use in the workplace. The smaller one is intended for use in a filing cabinet.
Look above the 9 key in the photo to see how it converts to mm (and cm and m) in linear, area, and cubic measurements. To convert a displayed value from another unit to mm, use the [Conv] 9br>keystroke. To directly enter a mm value, use the value e keystroke. [Conv] 9., 123, 123, 123, 123, 123, 123, br>I hope this information is useful.

It accomplishes everything I require, as well as a great deal more. First and foremost, button accuracy is something that I find lacking. I miss key presses far too frequently when I'm sitting flat on my drawing table with nothing to absorb my presses. I'm used to using a ten-key numeric keypad for blind entry, and my old Construction Master had it for 25 years before it was time to retire. I've had this one for less than a year and it's still going strong. That's how it's been since the day it was delivered. So I waste time watching every key press, every single time. This extends bid time a good bit when adding up a large project. And I am still 100% not comfortable with my Second, even with the adjustable angle readout, I still get a glare and have to move it around to get the right amount of reflection on the readout. A slightly matte finish that doesn't bounce light as much would seem to be preferable, but I'm not going to scratch the screen. br>In terms of functionality and accuracy, you can't beat this one as long as the keys correctly record my input! In that regard, I have faith in it.
Bigger buttons mean more precision, and I don't have to take off my gloves to use them. A large calculator is more difficult to misplace. It's also easier to see numbers and buttons on the screen.
15 years ago, I had the same Cal and model, but it was black. I misplaced my old one for a while, so now I have two!.
I'm a fabricator, and construction master pro calcs have been a staple in the toolboxes of the guys in the shop for years, so when I found out they made this, I had to give it a shot. This performs all of the functions of the smaller calculators while also providing even easier access to trig functions, making it a win-win situation in terms of functionality. I like the book that comes with it; it's a little bigger and clearer than the little booklet that comes with the other calculators in their line; it's more expansive and clearer, which makes getting the most out of the calculator for those functions you don't use all the time easier; and it's big! For use on the shop floor, I wish it was about a third smaller, but if you use it on a desk like it's supposed to be or have eyes that have seen a few years, it'll probably be right up your alley.
This calculator is outstanding. It's simple to read, understand, and use. It came with an instruction manual, and learning new functions took me only 20 minutes. The keys and display size are both appealing to me. There are numerous positive aspects. When doing a quantity takeoff on a set of house plans, I first saw this on the desk of a construction estimator at a lumber yard. I bought one for my office and I'm very happy with it.
except. This is, without a doubt, one of the best. The only criticism I have is that the pocket reference guide is not written in English. As a result, I'll either have to carry the full-size manual around with me or enroll in a class to learn whatever language it's written in.
Unfortunately, this excellent calculator replaced an older model that included a MM function that the new one lacks. The desktop model's other features are excellent. Unfortunately, I'm working with engineering drawings that are scaled in metric measurements, so I'll need an MM key. For the task of calculating footage quantities and takeoffs for my job, I had to pull out my trusty pocket calculator. The task became more difficult as the keys became smaller.
Because we're working at the office and at home during this pandemic, I needed to duplicate my work desk at home. I had a standard size Construction Master 5 and decided to upgrade to something easier to read for use at the office; I really like this calculator.
