Inaccurate and Lacking in Quality
2 Stars
Inaccurate and Lacking in Quality
As other reviewers have mentioned, this graphic arts ruler/scale isn't particularly accurate. However, in addition to its lack of accuracy, the Westcott's quality is also questionable. Mine arrived today with two-thirds of the line scales missing from either bad printing or having been scratched off prior to the manufacturer packaging the item (see pic.) Despite the reaonsable price, I do not recommended purchase.
