Measuring Tools
There are many really neat measuring tools and two of my favorites are the Precision Proportional Divider by Cesieco and this little tool that unfortunaltely broke in half today.
I need to reorder one, but I bought it eons ago in Germany and have no idea what it is called (in German or English) and where to get a replacement from.
The ruler measures only in cm and mm, but what is so cool about it is that it has a central axis with measurements going from the center to the left and right. Determining angles is easily done and the fact that you measure in mm gives better control.
Can anyone help me find this?

It took at least an hour, but I finally found it at Pencil Things
In Germany it's called a "Zeichnen Dreieck" or "Geo-Dreieck" and in the US it's called a "compass triangle" in case you like to have one too.

Was just about to post 'I will have a look if I can find this. Bousner is the big warehouse supplier in Germany and there is one near me' when I noticed your last post. Let me know if you need me to look for it here.
