Questions & Answers
Yes, that is correct. As the "closer look" function demonstrates. Even the 16th can be seen on the ruler's outside. I sincerely hope I have been of assistance.
The edges are slightly beveled, which is more than the previous manufacturer offered.
It's pliable, but I don't believe it was designed to bend. It's bendy because of the plastic, unlike the hard plastic rulers we used in elementary school. I simply adore this ruler, as I always say whenever I'm asked to comment on it. The price is excellent, the ruler is excellent, and you will not need to look elsewhere for a good ruler. I use it in my mandala drawings because it allows me to see through it.

Selected User Reviews For Westcott 18" 8ths Beveled Ruler
I was relieved to discover that it resembled my previous one. When I first opened the box, I was disappointed. My new ruler isn't quite as rigid as my old one. It has a thin, flimsy feel to it. The measurements are printed ON TOP of the rulers' acrylic layers, rather than within them. As a result, I expect the numbers to fade over time (due to my proximity to a steam press and iron) and the ruler to snap. I paid almost $9 for it, and it was not worth it. This ruler should cost no more than a dollar; it's CHEAP! It's not something you should buy. If at all possible, switch to a different brand.
My old see-through outfit The see-through grid ruler has become discolored, resulting in the see-through effect. Quality is difficult to come by (it's been a long time). As a result, I purchased this one to replace the previous one. It's clear and concise, but it's also flimsy! It's about half as sturdy as my old one, in my opinion. I'm disappointed in you!.
These come in a variety of sizes, which I have several of. However, in my Multimedia work, there are times when I need to use the wonderful clear attribute to precisely cut very narrow strips of paper and be able to repeat that exact size; in other words, when you'measure' and then mark the measurement, there will be some variance due to the width of the pencil lead, which varies, and so on. It also consumes a significant amount of time that could be better spent elsewhere. I took away one star because these are so thin and made of such a flexible plastic that it's easy to nick the edge and ruin them. My only wish is for Westcott to make these out of a stiffer, thicker plastic, so that I can use my scalpel or box knife to cut along the edge.
For art or drafting, this is a great little ruler. My machinist's rulers and combination squares line up with the measurements (though it's only graduated to 1/8 inch, which is fine for most applications). These were very cheap and recommended by my drawing teacher, so I got a few different sizes of them. Because the lines can be lined up with the edge of the paper, it's a good idea to put an even border around your artwork. Outside of class, I've already used these to scribble down ideas and plans for the shop. These are interesting items, and while I wouldn't use them as a cutting edge, that isn't what they were designed for. What could possibly go wrong for less than $5?.
It's something I couldn't live without, and it should be one of the first things people buy when they begin sewing clothing. This is how I add seam allowances. br>br> darts that are perfect in every way; Trace tucks, pleats, and other pattern markings, as well as anything else that requires a line in the sewing process. br>br>There's not much to say about it—it's a ruler, after all—but it's so good at what it does, and it comes in handy for so many different applications.
I bought this to use in a variety of crafts. But, more recently, I've discovered that it's indispensable for my sewing. To ensure that I was drawing a straight line on my wall, I needed to be able to see through my ruler. I would have been stranded if it hadn't been for the quilt. It's so light and airy, and I really like it. However, this is not a good ruler to use as a straight-edge ruler. a blade's edge That's why I use metal rulers. I'm excited to use it on more projects where my regular rulers would obscure my vision. br>br>I like how there are so many lines and ruler markings. Allows for faster marking without the need to count ticks again.
For over three decades, this product has remained unchanged! My mother still has two of hers from the late 1980s and early 1990s that are identical to the one I received, demonstrating the product's longevity. It's made of clear plastic with red markings that's slightly flexible. For people who require larger print, the markings can be difficult to read, but this is, in my opinion, a minor issue. Everything is clearly marked, and the grid lines make precise measurements easier. I have complete faith in this brand 100% as should you have as well!.
I've been using this style of ruler in my wood shop for over a dozen years, but the markings have mostly worn off over time, and I've tried several potential replacements but none have worked as well. This one caught my eye on Amazon, and I couldn't wait to read it. Because of its flexibility and thinness, it's simple to tape onto a piece of wood while keeping both hands free to mark drilling targets. It has a high enough resolution to estimate to the nearest tenth of a tenth of a tenth of a 01". I figure I'll be fine for another decade or so with this ruler.
