Much as I hate reading, my eyes depend on magnification and "large hard copies". When I get a new tool (or procedure), I download the PDF and if unavailable I will scan in the manual. I then print off those few relevant pages I always keep referring to and laminate them, storing them in a folder down in the workshop,
(unless it's a 1 off) and/or hang them up above/near my work for that quick reference,
or just keep it close,
... and for all the yuppies that live by their phones... a good one is not cheap and to subject them to the rigors of the workshop is verging on the brink of Philistinism. Surely you upgrade "regularly"... at the next upgrade, don't trade the old one in or bequeath it to kids/g-kids, keep that in your workshop... you don't need a SIMM for it down there.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
