Snap-on stop for the folding rule.

The side stop surface has the same height as the beginning of the folding rule.

This allows for easy and precise measurement with a stop, similar to using a tape measure.

The stop surface is 2mm thick. Easy to use and easy to print.

 

The stop is placed onto the folding rule and clamped with two screws. This prevents it from slipping out during measurement.

 

Available in three versions:

For M3 and M4 threaded inserts and screws.

As well as for BT3x8 screws

 

Very easy to print without support material!

the end of a tape measure is supposed to move slightly… the exact amount happens to be the width of the metal end. this is so it will account for measuring while pulling out from a surface or pushing against one… this tool will make your measurements no longer accurate

The inner stop is flush with the metal plate, or the beginning or end of the ruler! For the outer stop, subtract 2mm because the stop is that thick. This allows for very precise measurements! I prefer it to a tape measure and it has proven itself reliable for three years now!

You are right but this model is for a wooden ruler not an actual tape measure, the designer should name this model something else...

The design and print are superb, making it a joy to print and removing unnecessary parts that almost fall out on their own, everything is perfect. Many thanks for this.
