General area measurement

Notes: "This is an early K&E 4238 because it does not have the second socket on the frame for the pole arm to attach to. On later models one socket was for inch calibrations, the other for metric. This one is metric, and the length of the tracing arm can be adjusted over a 2 cm range. Yes, only two centimeters. The reason for this is unknown, possibly very fine adjustment."
