Amazon.com Product Description Precise, versatile, and easy-to-use are the words which best describe the Incra 12-Inch Precision Marking T-Rule.

There are micro-fine marking holes and slots at every 1/16-, 1/32-, and 1/64-inch scale position to instantly locate your sharp pencil or scribe exactly on target with zero uncertainty. The Incra T-Rule makes it very easy to draw exact lines in either direction, and with zero uncertainty and no eye strain. Other features include 0- to 3-inch height markings on the end in 32nds, and the option of marking holes every 1/100-inch. The product also comes with a limited 1-year warranty.

Perect for making exact and repeatable measurements August 24, 2008 The ruler is a wide, very thin piece of spring metal that has holes and slots in it every 1/64th of an inch. There's a T bar at one end that allows you to put the ruler up against a board or any surfact with a raised edge and meadure precisely, using a standard thin-lead mechanical pencil. If you guide the T bar along the edge and leave the pencil in a slot, you can mark a line that's exactly parallel to the edge, and the meaurement is perfectly repeatable because of the accurately placed slots in the metal rule. It works exactly as advertised and the accuracy fully justifies the price.
A couple of cautions: The rule is very thin, so you have to handle it gently to avoid putting a permanent bend in it. You shouldn't put anything heavy on top of it. I kept the blster pack and I put the rule back into the pack and hang it up to keep it out of harm's way when it's not being used. And you have to hold the ruler firmly against the edge when you slide it to mark a line parallel to that edge.
Excellent tool! March 25, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I build dollhouse miniatures, and this ruler is indispensable. I bought it after trying repeatedly to cut four cabinet drawer fronts all the same size. Now I not only have matching drawers, the drawer pulls are all in line, too. The T-rule insures that all the measurements start at the same place, and the slots in the ruler insure they end in exactly the right place. No more time wasted lining up the end of the ruler exactly with the end of the wood, and no more time wasted trying to be sure to mark in the exact same space in relation to the line on a "regular" ruler. Worth every penny!
can be useful December 31, 2007 1 out of 5 found this review helpful
I can see where this instrument would be useful in many professions. You can even use it as a regular ruler without the guide. Just hope it holds up and I don't accidentally make it unusable. It is flexible like a sheet of paper. I wish they made a metric version because I want to convert to metric. SAE is just a waste of my brain space. Actually a lot of society is a waste of time.
Surprised how thin this is December 25, 2007 7 out of 10 found this review helpful
I was surprised to see how thin this is! You can hold one end and the other one will bend like a pizza slice. For the price I was expecting something more solid. It is nice to have all the markers for repeatability and such but I'm afraid to break this one!
Excellent marking machine November 10, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Just like the other folks say, this is a great addition to any shop. I find myself reaching for my T-Rule more often than most of my other measuring tools. I use a standard marking gauge to mark mortises but I use this tool to set up the gauge. The little holes are perfect for this job because the pins sit nicely in them and make repeat setups a breeze.
