Review on πŸ“ Helix Metal Safety Ruler 32046: The Ultimate Safety Solution for Accurate and Risk-free Measurements by David Elam

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Solid ruler, but watch out for gaps.

EDIT: One thing about this ruler that I finally noticed is the lack of an edge-to-edge measurement. There is a 1/4 inch space in front of 0 (I found a ruler to measure my ruler). I know some rulers have an issue where the edges can fray and affect accuracy, but a) it's not a scientific instrument and b) the edges on this thing aren't going anywhere. This is fixed by subtracting 1/4 inch from the measurements to include the gap, but this is an unnecessary workaround. This is a lightweight and durable piece of gauge metal. I wouldn't want to get any of them over my ankles. It would be like kissing a handyman. It has a very deep center for a pencil and the non-slip bottom is grippy enough without feeling like a parking brake when moving.

Pros
  • Linear measurement
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
