DuBois straight edges 18, 24, 38, 50"
After a lifetime of working on machine tools, from standard shop equipment to specialized CNC, I finally broke down to buying precision straight edges. Like other measuring tools, a proven reliable edge is of value. How many times I would scrounge around to find something, of length, like flat stock, angle iron, or extruded aluminum. To help me align, or create a border with high accuracy. So now, after all these years, I have to scrounge no more! When wood working, fabricating using metal, or welding, I now have the full assortment of the DuBois line. I thank you, for supplying me with quality merchandise, throughout the years. Lars21
