Review on πŸ“ Johnson Level & Tool 1817-0000 Architect's Triangular Scale: Precise Black 1 Scale for Professional Accuracy by Andrew Krishna

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice, good buy. Scale issue 1/2 "

Very well made, lighter and slimmer than most other aluminum rulers. She has a pretty big disadvantage. The inch scale on the 1/2 inch scale is positioned very differently than any other scale ruler I have used and is actually different from the inch range of the same ruler at other scales. When using the 1/2 inch scale, the section uses a "major" line every two inches (2,4,6,8,10) as opposed to the standard method of a larger line every three inches (3.6, 9 inches). ) . This makes reading the very small 1/2 inch section of the scale very difficult, almost impossible.

Pros
  • Package width: 3.25"
Cons
  • Available in white only
