    Small ruler

    posted by joost69 on 02/06/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    One side contain indications in mm with a part (5cm) in 0.5 mm. The other side is divided in inches with sub-divisions in 1/10, 1/16, 1/20, 1/32, 1/50 and 1/64. The lines and numbers are engraved in the steel so will not degrade.
    Cons:
    The first cm (or inch) is a little too small, do not place it to a stop and start measuring from there.

    beware of the sharp edges!

    posted by eadmaster on 09/04/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Cons:
    - sharp edges and corners, you need to handle it carefully, or you may hurt your hands! Always keep it in its protective bag.
