A folding rule is a handy tool for measuring lengths and distances. It is usually made of wood, plastic or metal and is usually about two meters long. A folding rule is divided into several links, so-called folding rule links, which can be folded out. Units of measurement, such as centimeters and millimeters, are printed on the links to allow accurate measurements to be taken. The units of measurement allow you to read lengths up to two meters. A folding rule is flexible and can be easily folded and transported. It is used primarily in crafts and home improvement, but also in many other areas where precise measurements are required.
