I have a bin of old laryngoscope handles and another bin of blades for my medical mission group. I need a sort algorithm. Has anyone done this before? I'm considering using a caliper to measure some dimensions to classify which blades and handles would be compatible. I believe that I'd find 3-5 types of handles and a similar number of blade bases to lock into the handles. I was going to classify each of them with a tape color so that it is easier to make 'sets' in the future.
