One of my favorite songs OF ALL TIME!
Big question for me in making rulers is deciding which way to run the markings. It’s good to have them both go left to right, to get a sense of scale for metric and imperial. But then you have to measure from above for the bottom scale. So I print several rulers, one like yours and then one with left to right for both and the other right to left. that way I can change my zero. Way overthought, but when you can make your own rulers, you can customize as needed. Which gives me a thought. I’m working on a big project for cigar shapes and sizes. Would be cool to have a cigar ruler with ring sizes. I go into a big walk in humidor and most of the time I am going for a cigar that will give me a certain time of smoke. So I have a sense of how ring gauge and length go together for duration. But I am have to read these small tags on a cigar for the dimensions and that’s hard.
Still getting used to understanding standard sizes and shapes, such as a Churchill, lonsdale or panatella. Stay tuned for the ruler post!
Thanks for the inspiration. Here was one of mine.
