I especially appreciate this metal ruler since it measures right from the end of the rule. It is also from thin but sturdy metal. For my use, it is near perfect.

Love the size and sturdiness of this ruler!!

This is great ruler! The measurement starts at the very edge, a big plus. The inches are divided into 16ths, 32nds and 64ths, and the centimeters are divided into millimeters and half millimeters. And ... there is a conversion table on the back!
