Famous Four-Fold Wood & Brass Rule

A classic essential for any woodworkers toolbox
These are traditionally called Blindman's Rules, because the markings are very large and easy to read. They remain just as attractive and functional today as they were 100 years ago. With their complex solid brass joints, these hardwood rules are not easy tools to make well. Highly recommended as one of the most classic tools any woodworker can add to his toolbox. The 36" length folds down to a 9" long section. Easily slips into a pants pocket.

Clever and easy measuring
Reviewed By:	Mike F. (Arlington , MA)
This is a very handy tool. I first learned to use it in a boatyard in Pt. Reyes California. The best thing is how the widths are dimensioned: Folded flat, it measures 1" across, opened up one fold, it measures 1/2" across, set on edge, it measures 1/4" across, and fully unfolded, it's 1/8" thick. Clever, no? People at GW should check me, but I think that's right.

Not straight
Reviewed By:	Christopher Caldwell (Scottsdale, AZ)
Thought this would be a really helpul tool. But I was disappointed to find that when the ruler was fully opened it wasnt' straight. I tested it on flat surfaces, and it rocked since the wood was bowed or slightly warped. I sent mine back.
