PrintableRulers.net has become the go-to website for anyone needing a ruler or other measuring tool right away.

"I've just added even more printable rulers," said Kevin Savetz, the site's creator. "Now, there are 114 measurement tools for home, school, work, hobbies and other uses. Each ruler instantly downloads for free."

The site has standard rulers, metric rulers and a broad selection of specialty rulers.

The 18 new printables include additions to the professional rulers and drawing tools categories, which include squares, triangles and protractors. There are two new metric triangles as well as T-squares in centimeters and inches. Also just-added are L-shaped evidence rulers in various sizes that are intended to be laid alongside an item for photography purposes.

PrintableRulers.net has hobbyist rulers to scale for model railroads, dollhouses, and other pursuits. The new metric scale variations are for HO scale, N scale and O scale.

PrintableRulers.net also has zero-center rulers, right-to-left rulers, mini pocket rulers and page layout rulers for editors and designers. There are also several colorful rulers, plus a yard stick and a measuring tape to print out and assemble.

"Before printing, be sure to set your printer to 100 percent for the best results," Savetz advised. "These rulers are especially handy when you can't get to the store or only need to measure a few things."

There are more than 100 sites in the FreePrintable.net family of free printables sites created by Savetz Publishing, Inc., a company devoted to creating useful and informative web sites of interest to consumers and small businesses.
