It’s the toughest way to take a measurement. Nobody’s going to argue with your measuring when you whip out a Ruler Gun. Even if you believe the government is coming to take your guns away, they’re definitely not going to take your rulers away, right? Made in France and made of wood, this ruler only does the Metric system (as in: shoot this 2 liter bottle with your 9mm). Bang.

Pixel Ruler Could Probably Be Useful To Someone
We have about zero experience in the graphic arts, so we’re not entirely sure if the above is actually useful to anyone, but we feel like it might. It’s a ruler that measures in pixels. We think that’s pretty nifty, except we’re not too sure how it works. Don’t different screens have different size pixels? Here’s the description the manufacturer gives:
The ultimate tool for responsive screen size sketching. Heavy-duty gauge stainless steel ruler with pixel increments. Markers for mobile, tablet and widescreen (laptop) sizing.
So it says its got a 150ppi scale… Oh. Right, ok, so that means that if your screen is of another density than 150ppi, you can adjust accordingly, right? Or this only works with 150ppi screens? We get that it’s meant so that what you draw on paper will have the same size on screen, we’re just lost with the scales…
Forgive our ignorance on this particular topic. If you’re so inclined, hit the jump and look at more pictures of the $24 ruler and click on the link for purchasing. And if anyone wants to enlighten us, and other readers, let us know in the comments.

Digital Protractor
Remember those little clear plastic semi-circles you used to use to measure angles back in the dark ages? Well get with the times mathlete because now there’s a Digital Protractor. Use it to measure angles or draw things at a specific angle with accuracy to one decimal place. Measures in either centimeters or inches with the ruler. Lock the knob to keep it dialed it to a specific angle. Fear no angle. It just adds up.
