About this model

Turn a carpenters folding rule or metal rulers into a marking gauge / depth stop. By tightening the lever the position of the ruler can be fixed. Printed in place. Best printed flat - as designed. Supports are required only towards printing bed, but no inner support. After printing the lever might be sticky. To loosen it gently slide e.g. a flat knife between lever and housing. Design updated to support thin metal rulers. Don't tighten lever too much, otherwise ruler might cut into clamp. Updates: - [2019-05-12] Support for thin metal rulers (ruler bed raised if ruler thickness < 2mm) - [2020-12-27] Allow angled fence Have fun!
