Saga Measuring Sticks

A quick run through on how I made my own Saga measuring sticks. All-up cost for the set was just over a pound, which I think is cheap enough for anyone - even me! lol

Measure with a micrometer, mark with chalk, cut with an axe, hammer to fit, paint to match!

Cracking work, well done! If I didn't have MDF ones already, I'd do this myself! Maybe for the next SoBH set I pick up...

Great Idea.  I've gone with the old tape measure up to now but I might give these a try.
