How necessary are the crafts and modeling<\/strong> tools to measure<\/a>!<\/strong> If the modeler or lover of other hobbies wants the assembly process and creation to be precise <\/strong><\/strong>and everything fits<\/strong> perfectly<\/strong>, they require them definitely. Artesan\u00eda Latina<\/strong><\/a><\/strong> has a catalog of these tools with the largest quality for our customer friends. Let’s get to know them, because they are essential <\/strong><\/strong>if we do not want to reposition parts, to avoid errors in measurements<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

MODELING TOOLS TO MEASURE: 150 & 300 MM STAINLESS STEEL RULERS<\/h2>\n

The basics at any modeling or craft workshop: the rulers<\/strong><\/a>. We start with the two normal stainless steel rulers<\/strong>, they will last a lifetime. The first<\/strong> of them is 15 cm or 150 mm<\/strong><\/a> length (27069), 13 mm width and 0.5 mm thickness. It is used more in tasks of smaller measurements<\/strong> such as parts of round dowels, masts, strips, wings, chains and an endless number of elements.<\/p>\n

\"Modeling<\/a><\/p>\n

The second<\/strong> of the normal<\/strong> rulers is larger<\/strong> thanks to its length of 30 cm or 300 mm<\/strong><\/a> (27070), width of 19 mm and thickness of 1 mm. Both rulers have a hole<\/strong> at one end so they can be hanged<\/strong> when they are not in use. In this way, you can keep organized your modeler’s workshop<\/strong><\/a> (27648).<\/p>\n

MODELING TOOLS TO MEASURE: MICRO CENTERING RULER<\/h2>\n

One of the recent novelties<\/strong> of our firm in terms of measurement<\/strong><\/a> for modeling and handicrafts is the wonderful and super useful micro centering ruler<\/strong><\/a> (27326). Its length is 20 cm or 200 mm <\/strong>-10 cm or 100 mm on each side-. Also made of stainless steel, it makes it easier to find the center of the parts<\/strong> exactly<\/strong> to achieve a more effective assembly of these ones. With metric and imperial measurement system<\/a>, according to the needs of the modeler. As can be seen on the images, this centering rule places 0 in the center<\/strong> and the numbering grows towards both sides.<\/p>\n

How to use it?<\/strong> Place it so that the measurements coincide at the edges, and the 0 on the ruler marks the center of the part. The small existing points on the ruler allow the modeler to mark measurements with total accuracy, pointing through these with a mechanical pencil or pencil. Includes a protractor<\/strong> inside the ruler itself. More information about this measurement tool for modeling and crafts on the video below.<\/p>\n
