I'm sure this is still really useful, but what the heck happened to the old ACTUAL calculator layout I had gotten good with and accustomed to? I'm not looking for some educational platform, I just need to have an actual calculator I actually know how to use. Overcomplicating something to make the user interface more friendly seems an unnecessary step for someone like me. You could've at least released whatever... this is as its own, separate application.

It's a must-have for any machinist. Simple interface, accurate calculations, and a handy tool database make it invaluable for my daily work. Highly recommend!
