Swanson SVE360 36-Inch Savage Straight Edge, Non-marring, Anodised and Laser-Etched Scale

Bowed in middle

very nice item. easy to read straight edge, light weight but strong

It came wrapped in heavy cardboard tube. No damage at all and dead straight. Use it for laying out rails in a street shop

Great for cutting glass.

Have been looking for a Good straight edge and this fit the bill and the four foot one was just what i needed will work with any project I have Including drywall or 4x8 sheets of building material

Worth the money. heavy, safe, I can hold it or clamp it down.... Well worth it.

One edge was slightly bowed. Had to sand down on table saw.

Awesome rulers. The ledge makes them rigid and makes it very easy to lift/move the rulers around. The surface area exposed outside the ledge is large enough that you can easily clamp the rulers and use them as cutting fences for plywood. Adding an inch to the length would make these even more awesome for oversize 4 by 8 panels (that are 48.5 times 96.5 inches).

Solid aluminum. Etchings are easy to read. Soft rubber lining the bottom. Best of all, the rulers end is actually zero. Many other brands are not so marked; but a few hairs in from the end. This is a precision instrument.

Not straight, which is kind of a dealbreaker for a straight-edge. Its bowed in the middle, creating up to a 3/8 deviance across the length if one end is held against an actually flat/straight surface.
