If you like rulers and liked my international ruler , then you might like this centre-line based ruler.
Unfortunately, this time I won’t be providing OpenSCAD code to go with it, just the finished SVG.
Improvements:
sub-inch 1/32th marks
cut logo, rather than engraved… so now you can admire the accuracy of cuts, or pop the logo out to hang it on a nail!*
(*) I haven’t tried that last part yet. But it’s a good idea, no?

I’m kind of waiting for some friendly but rabid Glowforge lawyer to burst in and start clubbing me over the unsanctioned use of the logo hole…

When I first got the prerelease and did the founders ruler, I went insane over the cutout of the logo. I just kept looking at it and showing it to people. I carried it with me to demonstrate how precise the laser worked. I ended up making earings out of something like it.

Ha! Yeah, I remember the earrings. But this is more manly! You can stick it in your shirt pocket and have the Glowforge logo sticking out on a stick. Heh.

This is awesome. I bet that in a year we will need an index of rulers.

Yep! The cut is underneath the pink.
(I switched the engrave to score though, to speed it up, and they scored a little too deep, so I’ll need to recut them.)

Not sure how to download that. The link gives me the image of it, but no options.
