The straight edge portion is lined with a transparent plastic. The positive of this is the added visual transparency while placing your line but this also limits the use of a blade; even for simple cuts. "Art Framing" is in the description but there are better straight edges for that. Particularly something with a metal edge. You don't even need a transparent edge if your measurements are right, wtf design?
A little more weight would be nice. If feel the lightweight materials slide around too easily and make it difficult procuring your placements and final adjustments.
Expect to modify or alter this tool to get any real use or functionality out of it. Wasn't worth the price for me.
