This is ruler Measures in both Metric Centimeters and Imperial Inches. As I live in America I found myself needing a ruler in inches (Even though we all know that Metric is the superior unit of measurement) while I could only find ones in centimeters. And Who doesn't need a ruler, when you need it you can never find one.

The color changes are done by layer so no MMU is required.

There are multiple different files for different rulers. The 25cm ruler will fit on a 21x21 cm bed. There is also a large version that is 30 cm and 12 inches long for large format printers. These rulers are thin so they are flexible and can be used for measuring complex shapes- they do not take much time to print or much material.

If you need a smaller or larger version please leave a comment and I will be happy to post one. And I appreciate the feedback.

Print instructions

The color changes are done by layer so no MMU is required. I recommend printing in 2 different contrasting colors.
You may need to remove the skirt for your print.

The color changes are based on a 0.2 mm layer height
Color change at 0.4 mm - 2nd Layer

If you find any issues or need any modifications, let me know and I will be happy to make them, the feedback is greatly appreciated.
