Customer Reviews
As an artist, I use a ruler quite often to lay out the initial line work and dimensions in my drawings. Coming from an architectural drafting background where these triangular scales are 110% mandatory, I am very comfortable using one. Back in high school both my instructor and I used this exact brand (Alvin) for all of our drafting equipment (with the exception of a few Staedtler products here and there).As an artist today, I find this tool invaluable for all the variations and situations that require one of the six sides of this scale. Personally, I only work in metric because it's much simpler to use and saves time and headaches when scaling your drawing up or down in size from the reference.For example, say you measure a line to be 10 centimeters and your doing a drawing that is at 1.75 scale. Its much easier and cleaner (smaller decimals) to translate 17.5 centimeters than it is to scale up .4375 of an inch to .765625 of an inch. It's easier and faster to draw a line exactly 17.5 cm than it is to draw one at .765625 inches. Not to mention you won't strain your eyes as much.
