Ah, the "Engineers' rule". Very similar to Procrustean rule, adjustment by 10" file or blob of weld to suit.
"Ah, Tmac! could thou and I with Fate conspire
To grasp this sorry Scheme of Things entire!
Would not we shatter it to bits-and then
Re-mould it nearer to the Heart's Desire!"
(partly Omar Kiam, who liked the shaver so much he bought the company)
