hi, any chance i could a copy of your rising hinge calculator in spreadsheet form? I dont seem to be able to access the calculator. Thanks

seems to work fine but

sometimes does not, which is quite bizarre. And when it does work it redirects you to the non-https page. My guess is that your browser does not like the http: version, considering it insecure.
