Review on Starrett C604R 18 Tempered Graduations Thickness by Jerimiah Augustine

What can you say about this product? This is an 18 inch steel measuring ruler. Totally useless for measuring anything over 18 inches, but nobody's perfect. I have a few other lengths of this thing and feel like an 18" dipstick is a must for any shop. I'm building, measuring, or drawing anything between 12" and 16" in any direction (shelves spring to mind immediately) and a standard 12" stick just doesn't fit and a measuring stick or tape would be overkill and maybe even bulky. tight, i like it.
