    Comments about WOODCRAFT Pocket Rule, 6" :

    Accuracy at a reasonable price, and the increment lines are easy to read. The metric measurements are not necessary, however, and should be replaced with 1/8" and 1/16" increments. That small quibble does not keep me from recommending this 6" pocket rule to everyone. I bought two of them!

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about WOODCRAFT Pocket Rule, 6" :

    This is a high quality rule, made in USA. one side is 1/32" and 1/64", and the other is Metric, which is useless to me. I am sending it back, because I found a Starrett 6" rule with 1/8" and 1/16" on one side and 1/32" and 1/64" on the other at Highland.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about WOODCRAFT Pocket Rule, 6" :

    the metric scale on the back is useless. It would serve the majority of users to have markings in other English units o n the back. When I use metrics in map scaling I use metric only tools it should be the same with wood working. One or the other. I do like the small size.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about WOODCRAFT Pocket Rule, 6" :

    Great little rule. What makes this especially nice is the end graduations! Not only does it have the graduations on the side but also on the ends so that you can eye-ball the height of something with the ruler on it's side. It's comparable to the small Starrett ruler but cheaper; however, just as accurate.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
