  • Well made and accurate
Style: 38" straight edge
Seems to be at least as accurate as they advertise. Very nice addition to my shop. I use it for setting up new tools and for identifying uneven surfaces on large slabs.

  • Dead flat
Style: 38" straight edge
End to end less than .0015. I don’t have the tools to measure more accurately than that. Great investment.

  • Good quality knockoff
Style: 6" T rule + pencil
Was going to buy the Incra version and took a chance on this and am happy.

  • Very true, and a good weight.
Style: 38" straight edge
This is a part of my mobile drafting kit. My only complaint is the rule is upside down to the near edge. I suspect there's a reason?

  • Very helpful to have around the garage/shop
Style: 38" straight edge
This is very handy to have around. I have used to it set up my jointer. Very helpful for the task. Works good to check boards to make sure they are flat. I’ve used it to see that boards weren’t straight which I could then run through my jointer to get a straight edge to reference on the table saw fence. It’s quickly becoming something I’m reaching for often. A valuable tool to have around if you do any woodworking. ... show more
