Using Digitizers with MacNail

Problem

digitizer references for MacNail estimating software

Diagnosis

User wants a digitizer for entering measurements into MacNail construction estimating software

Solution

2D digitizers (calculate irregular areas, lengths, counts)

Lasico 213 662-2128 $2200 'arm' digitizer, has the best interface of all for entered scales and areas
Paladin Systems 800 255-8428 MeasureMac sonic digitizer $2000

GTCO 301 381-6688 $450-3000 board digitizers, good for drawing, not that great for measurements
Kurta 602 276-5533 similar to GTCO

NOTE-- Most of these digitizer manufacturers are still around, although mechanical digitizers have mostly been replaced by on-screen digitizer software that works on .pdf files.
