FULCRUM Fulcrum was the Newsletter for the European chapter of ISASC from 2006 to 2020. It built on our previous newsletters including News & Views. It will continue to be part of the content on this website while the organisation metamorphoses into a less formal group of enthusiasts. The back issues are all searchable PDF documents, and the information contained therein would be immensely difficult to find elsewhere. In a magnificently-sustained effort, long-time Editor John Knights has now produced his latest edition number 67, a two-subject issue on an Elizabethan Bushel measure, and the links between petrol pumps and Modernist architecture (think Frank Lloyd Wright). Fulcrum appears several times a year. Contributions on the topic of the light-hearted study of weighing and measuring are always welcomed, and remain the copyright of the author. Fulcrum is light but learned in tone, and complements the scholarly work found in Equilibrium (EQM), which is available in print and now electronic form only from ISASC in the USA.
