Nah, no drinking.
Come to think of it though, those cakes did have a bit of a funny taste to them...

I use a tailor measuring tape. I measure between the center of the serial number and the dot on the shell. Depth is from the edge of the shell to the beginning of the nut. That means measuring to the center of the pin (left and right). "Downward" edge of the pin is considered zero when in the main reset line.

Thats basically what I do but I have a paper mm ruler printer out. Id like to tape it to the shaft but Im not sure if it would have any issues with lime.

What Ive done for the last few is Krazy glue a MM ruler printout to the trainer. Since the shaft is about 75MM and the trainer is a bit bigger, I blew up by 120% first...

That photo makes the lime look like it's been completed. The reflection gives the illusion the dots are joined

Ive been stuck on the green obsession for nearly 2 days now with no progression. Im at the part where the pathes are like 'S' & 'C' shaped. I just cant map it well so dont know where to get through.
Im ok at mapping the distance horizontally, but my vertical aspect of the map is kinda *@!%ed up lol.
Any help would be great. (Not in solving it) Just mapping it, my thumbs are in pure agony from redoing the same bit over and over

You've linked to the start of this thread!
Anyway, I've just got my blue and after falling into the main trap for the last 30 mins I'm going to start drawing on paper. I think I'll have to order some graph paper from Amazon!
