Maximize your pencil case space without sacrificing drafting capability with the MIDORI Multi-Purpose Folding Ruler (16cm, Blue). Developed by Designphil Japan, this clever transformer stationery tool folds down into a pocketable 9 cm profile that is shorter than a standard pen, then smoothly snaps open into a full 16 cm straight edge whenever you need it.
Engineered with a versatile central hinge mechanism, the ruler features distinct tactile clicks at every 15-degree increment, functioning as a built-in protractor to plot geometric angles, diagonal divider layouts, and technical diagrams on the fly. Along the measuring spine, precision-drilled guide holes sit at every 10 mm interval, allowing you to insert the tip of a pencil or fineliner to drop accurate reference dots or draw parallel lines with uniform spacing. Calibrated with a practical ground-point (zero-edge) scale, markings begin flush at the ruler’s outer edge so you can measure internal heights, depths, and margins without awkward offset calculations. Finished in a translucent, vibrant blue made of durable polycarbonate and POM resin, it is an essential compact companion for students, architects, bullet journal planners, and everyday carry enthusiasts.
