Garrett Wade - 24" Lightweight Aluminum Straightedge (Rating: 5)

Well, the title just about says it all. I've been getting more in to hand tools (seems we all are) lately and the construction grade level and HD 12" combo square were just no longer straight enough. I needed an actually straight reference edge that I could trust and to be honest, was a bit skeptical of the price on these (~ $20 Shipped). After getting it, I can say I would highly recommend it. It's the straightest tool in my little shop and gives me the confidence I need when setting up tools and knowing for sure that the surface I'm lapping plane beds on are actually flat, etc.

Can't beat the price and it's as straight as they get!
