[quote=justme2]I have the 6 1/2" ruler....have the marks about worn off. Wish they had 8 1/2" ruler.

I've had mine for over 10 years and have not noticed any wear. I will have to inspect them for that.

Like everyone else I have LOTS of rullers...small, large, square, etc. But the ones I seem to grab the most are my T-squares. These are the ones carpenters use. I have 3 different sizes and love them. Also, don't forget the carpenter's triangle.

6 x 24 is what I use most, but I have a 5 1/2 square and a 6 x 12 that I use quite often. I have others too, but those are the ones I use most. If have a couple of small rulers too, but I don't use them often because they slip too easily.

I have every size ruler and some of them, more than once. My favorites are the shape rulers. (the ones with the slots) I have four different sizs of those. I use all my rulers and am always on the look out for different ones.

What kind of 12 1/2 ruler do you have? I am looking for another Fiskars ruler.

These are the two I use most. I just tried the Olfa frosted rulers and I love them. The ones with the yellow marks gave me a headache, too busy.
