My next new topic

Hi Aukai,

Above in post #18 Dave mention the Lee Valley "Veritas" steel straight edges.

They also have anodized aluminum ones:

and also carry the Starrett ones:

Just to show some of the range of materials, precision and price-points available.

Another interesting read is this thread:

if you have any inclination to make your own straight edge.

Please let us know if/what you get and how it works out for you.

Thank you gentlemen, the replies are very helpful. I will let you know what happens. I'm no stranger to escalating expenses. Made a new engine for the hot rod, then the upgrades to everything started. LOL
