didn’t realize this was a 6 inch ruler! I’m guessing there was an option to change it to a 12 inch, but it wasn’t obvious and at this point the process to return is more trouble than it's worth.

Nice for building scale models -- small enough for the little detail work. And non-slip so you can use to guide cuts.

The lines don't start at the edge of the ruler. Not useful for a technician. The old ones had the measurements start at the edge, I was surprised when I went to use the ruler and they weren't the same?
