FULL DESCRIPTION
This is the only precision rule to have been designed with features and benefits that are specific to woodworking, it is the straightest, heaviest, and flattest rule available. Each side of the rule has a 30° bevelled edge that allows you to make your pencil mark next to your required graduation without parallax error. The rule features two scales, a standard 0 - 600mm scale and a 300 - 0 - 300mm centre scale, the centre scale can be used to quickly find the centre of stock. There is a small central recess down the whole length of the base to ensure there is minimal contact with your workpiece to guarantee it sits perfectly flat. Two grooves down the centre of the top of the rule seat your fingers perfectly so you can effortlessly move the rule into place.

The rule has been precision CNC machined from a single piece of aircraft grade aluminium and the 1mm graduations are laser etched for complete accuracy. This material is used for its stability and the fact that it will remain true once it has been machined, as it keeps to extremely tight tolerances. The graduations are crisp and clear and can be read easily without straining your eyes. The rule has been beautifully finished by an electrochemical process called anodisation which increases its resistance to corrosion and wear while also making it very aesthetically pleasing.

This truly is the best ruler we have tested, it is perfect for woodworking applications. It is ideal for cabinet and fine furniture makers, ensuring an improvement in the accuracy of work. The quality is evident as soon as it is picked up due to its sturdy construction, making it ideal for the hobbyist woodworker or trade professional. The rule is 600mm long, 56mm wide and 6mm thick, its substantial size means it can also be used as a straight edge and is supplied with a hook stop. ©

Straight Rule

Bought this to replace my homebase 1m flexible plastic rule, which is well past its sell by date!!!!!! It came securely packaged in a stiff carboard tube, totaly safe in transit. I'm impressed by its accuracy and clear markings and look forward to many years of marking out.
