Review: Great ruler for drawing and sketching - Great little ruler for art or drafting. Measurements line up with my machinists rulers and combination squares (though this is only graduated to 1/8 inch, good enough for most applications). I got a few different sizes of these as they were very inexpensive and recommended by my drawing teacher. It is excellent to put an even border for your artwork as the lines can be lined up with the edge of the paper. I have already found uses outside of class to use these for sketching ideas and plans for use in the shop. These are thing and I would not use them as a cutting edge, however that is not what they are intended for either. For less than 5 bucks how can you go wrong. Review: Same Quality for Over Thirty Year’s! - This product has not changed for over thirty years! My mom still has two of hers from the late 80s to early 90s that are exactly the same as the one I received, a true testament to the product’s durability. It’s slightly flexible and clear plastic with red markings. The markings can be difficult to read for people who need larger print but this is a very small problem in my opinion. Everything is clearly marked and the grid lines make it easier to get accurate measurements. I trust this brand 100% and you should too! ## Features - Beveled Transparent Ruler: Perfect for all your drafting and drawing needs, this 18-inch ruler is calibrated in 8ths to the inch on one side and centimeters on the other. - Zero Centering Scale: Allows you to measure equally left and right from a centered starting point. - Durable Finish: This drawing and drafting ruler features a durable laminated exterior designed to enhance longevity. - Translucent Design: Our beveled ruler features a transparent construction that allows you to easily view the page beneath. - Premium Quality: Westcott craft supplies & materials for drafting and drawing are some of the finest products of their kind for students and professionals. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000V59R8K | | Best Sellers Rank | #40,680 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #73 in Construction Rulers | | Brand Name | Westcott | | Color | Clear | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,681) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00088359002418 | | Graduation Range | 1/16 Inches | | Included Components | 1 - Westcott B-85 18" 8Ths Graph Beveled Ruler | | Item Dimensions L x W | 18"L x 2"W | | Item Type Name | Westcott B-85 18" 8Ths Graph Beveled Ruler | | Item Weight | 0.08 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Acme United | | Material Type | Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) | | Model | B-85 | | Part Number | B-85 | | Style Name | Modern | | UPC | 088359002418 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | N..A | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Westcott - **Color:** Clear - **Graduation Range:** 1/16 Inches - **Material:** Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) - **Style:** Modern ## Images ![Westcott B-85 18" 8Ths Graph Beveled Ruler - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71IFzzIkVWL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is the squares on the ruler by 8th?** A: Yes, it is. As you can see with the "closer look function". On the outside of the ruler there you can see even the 16th. Hope I could help **Q: Are the edge are really beleved?** A: the edges have a very slight bevel which is more than what the previous manufacturer had provided. **Q: Is this ruler flexible?** A: It is bendy but I don't think it's meant to curve. The plastic makes it bendy, not like the hard plastic rulers we used in grade school. As I always add when I am asked to comment on this ruler, I simply love it. Price is great, ruler is great and you don't need to look any further for a good ruler. I use it in my mandala drawing and I like that I can see through it. **Q: will you combine shipping if I order more than one?** A: Shipping charges for School Specialty are based on dollar amount verses quantity on the order. The breakdown of charges can be located in the Seller Profile for review. Thank you! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great ruler for drawing and sketching *by C***T on January 23, 2021* Great little ruler for art or drafting.
