"This item arrived with a dent in the wood. Compared to other rulers in set, the text is washed out and not as legible as others. The build quality is poor for a measurement device. The design is acceptable."

Introducing Brass-Bound Wood Rules: Timeless Tools for Discerning Woodworkers and Collectors
Step back in time with our Brass-Bound Wood Rules – reminiscent of the classic wooden rules from our early school days, these exude nostalgia and craftsmanship. While not the exact same rules, they evoke the same sense of familiarity and quality.
Crafted with precision and attention to detail, these rules are thicker, making them incredibly easy to scribe lines next to. Whether you're marking lines for cutting, measuring out hole placements, or scaling measurements, these rules provide the accuracy and reliability you need.
Featuring solid brass-bound edges and graduated in 16ths, these rules are a testament to timeless design and enduring quality. Perfect for experienced woodworkers, antique collectors, and carpenters who appreciate the finer things in life.
Elevate your woodworking experience with Brass-Bound Wood Rules – where tradition meets functionality in every measurement. A 6" Rule is available for purchase separately, but you can bundle and save by getting a set of the 6" and 12" rule. Both rules also come with the Garrett Wade Odd-Job Complete Set.
