Got mine in Massachusetts, USA on the 13th!

The mailing house had truncated my zip code. Mine is 5 digits starting with a zero but since it was stored as a number, the zip code on the envelope was only 4 digits.

I received my 5 µRulers yesterday(11/14/2013) in Columbus, Indiana, USA. They are from New Zealand. Boy, that envelope is bull-strong. Useful little things.

Received 11/13/2013, "Direct" from New Zealand:

That was Dave's Excel Document. I sent him a message about it, specifically. Obviously didn't get through...

Received all 5 yesterday in Virginia. Thanks, Dave!

A comparison of the uRuler to the Adafruit ruler!

uRuler Adafruit
Color Red Black
Length 7 inches 6 inches
Flexibility Flexible 0.6 mm thick Stiff 1.5 mm thick
Content Mostly charts Mostly component footprints

Ego of developer:
uRuler - a full side devoted to the web address - really?
Adafruit "One PCB to RULER them all" - yikes!

Conclusion: complementary collectibles - ya gotta have 'em both!

Got mine here in Idaho today seems like if we have them here everyone should have them now.

My 5 rulers arrived today in the middle of nowhere, southern New Hampshire via New Zealand like the rest of the US recipients have posted so far.

Thank you Dave!

PS: I need to remember to get one of the Negative Feedback T-shirts the next time they're available.

It was a promotional item for the Open Hardware Summit! Would be pretty stupid to put one in the conference goodie bag without promotional stuff on it.
BTW, the 2nd side was free (the original one was only single sided) and I had no time to add any other technical stuff to the bottom, so I just whacked on my web address and youtube channel name.
I did not redesign it for the Pozible campaign because it was never supposed to be this big, it was only for those who were asking for one, and I didn't want to put any more work into than I had too at the time.
It's 0.5mm BTW.

Deep south of Louisiana, the rulers have arrived!

Thanks Dave.

perfect_disturbance · « **Reply #439 on:** November 15, 2013, 01:22:45 am »

I'm not sure what all of the charts are. Is there a description of what they are?

Somer72 · « **Reply #440 on:** November 15, 2013, 02:14:45 am »

I received mine today here in Nebraska, smack dab in the middle of the US. They look great too. Thanks!

Another consignment of 5 arrived in South Africa via Sweden.

Cheers Dave!

I know - they're both pretty much promotional. I was just playing around, no criticism intended.

My cheap caliper read 0.57, so I rounded up.

Hi Dave
I received my ruler yesterday here in Denmark.

Thanks a lot Dave

Got mine in New Hampshire on November 14 2013 in good shape.
Do most of the rullers have a slight curl to them?

I received mine yesterday, Nov. 14th here in California. Beauty!

Mine do. They may have been rolled by some piece of postal equipment, or maybe there is just a natural curvature to the pcb material.

Got mine today safe and sound on the other side of the world. Nice looking rulers.
