Just spotted this LINK coming up in Lidl in a few days. A self adhesive flexible steel ruler one meter long. Could be used on a benchtop or on the front of a milling machine table for example (easy enough to cut it to length). One version is "centre zero" which may be particularly useful for this sort of application. On offer at 2 for £3 seems a no-brainer to me.

Also useful for sewing and other hobbies should brownie points be required

Thankyou fo rthe heads up.

It might be some trick of the photography but the inch markings look too close together.

Those inches are centimetres! I also just noticed that they do both "reads left to right" and "reads right to left" versions as well as the "center zero" – so all bases covered.
