MSC Roestvrij staal metaal onbreekbaar rechte rand metrische liniaal ideaal voor naaien (30 cm)

Pros:Durable AF: Unlike plastic or wooden rulers, this thing won’t snap if you accidentally sit on it or toss it across the room in frustration.Precise Measurements: The etched or engraved markings (usually mm and cm, sometimes inches) don’t fade, so it stays accurate over time.Sharp Edges: Great for scoring paper or acting as a cutting guide with a blade – it doesn’t get chewed up like plastic ones.Solid Feel: Heavy enough to stay in place but not obnoxiously weighty.❌ Cons:Not Flexible: Can’t bend it around curved surfaces like a tape measure, so not ideal for 3D measuring.Sharp Edges (Again): Yeah, they’re a pro and a con – they can scratch surfaces or poke holes in bags/pockets if you’re not careful.Cold to Touch: Minor gripe, but it’s a thing especially in winter or in a cold lab/workshop.

Se lo guardi un po' di più si piega

Oh, I know these are just two simple and humble rulers but they were perfect for Duncurin’s needs.I had a really tricky flagging job to do at our daughter’s house. In a moment of madness, she took up the paving slabs that the builders had put down (she has a new-build home) and also the grass. The paving chap wanted a ferocious amount of money to pave it with the outside paving tiles she’d bought and could not even contemplate starting before October. My wife and I thought she’d be staring at the Somme all summer and so agreed to try to help her put some of the tiles down.Well, these are massive things. They come in packs of two and weigh 33kg. She had carried them all round to the back of the house all by herself.I knew that cutting them would be a nightmare, not just because of the weight but also their 60x60cms size. I have a wet cutter by Ferm, as previously reviewed. This will cut to over 25mm depth so I thought it might get through the tiles but I knew that the platform/table that makes up the Ferm would be way too small. I therefore built a larger wooden platform to sit flush with the Ferm metal one and would also be at the same level. The problem now, was that the fence would be useless and I knew I’d need to know if the tiles were running true as they are fed into the wet blade.These two rulers thus have telling advantages. Here goes: they are metal, they are thin but robust, they have lovely straight and precise edges, they have measurements that go right to the end with no ‘dead’ zones, they have the measurements on both sides and these are run the opposite way round which was also crucial, they are inexpensive and of course delivered courtesy of Amazon logistics in no time.I created the extended platform out of old hardwood floor boards. I routed down to just over 1mm which is the thickness of the rulers and to the same width. I then set the rules in the routed grooves and glued them with epoxy. I made sure that the rulers were precisely the same distance from the blade and also parallel.I ranged the measurement so that the numbers would face each other and of course would correspond. Please note for obvious reasons it wasn’t possible to change the labelling on the rulers thus they start from nought even though they impinged precisely on the edge of the metal platform/table of the Ferm wet cutter, some way from the blade. In a way this did not matter as long as the rulers corresponded with each other.Please see the photo attached. You can see one of the tiles at the side and with help from my wife we were able to use a new fence made up of a Trend clamp also reviewed and the whole thing was set parallel with the blade, also reviewed.All in all, this worked really well, although it nearly killed us! The rulers behaved beautifully and made sure that my new fence ie the Trend clamp once positioned at the correct distance from the cutting wheel was held straight and true simply by lining up the Trend clamp with the same markings on each of the rulers. The fact that they were in routed slots and were of a robust construction meant that the water and all the gubbins didn’t affect them and after a simple wipe over they were ready for the next cut. The markings didn't rub off and were easy to read even when the wet blade was, as it always does, covering everything including us!

Leider wirklich etwas scharfkantig. Man muss aufpassen den Stoff damit nicht zu beschädigen (Verwendung zum Schneidern)!
