Got a link? Excuse my ignorance, but I have no idea how these campaigns work.

I will, once it gets approved.

Ok, it's approved and online:

If it meets the goal, the boards get made.
We'll see how it goes.

Just so I'm clear, I would pledge $15 for the 5 ruler option, right?

Edit:

 :palm: I should have read the whole page. As you were. :)

As for the shipping. If I buy 5 for 15AUD + (some amount), only the 15AUD will be printet on the tax form right?

There is no tax form, it's a regular letter.

The $10 is a "donation" so to speak, that's how crowd funded campaigns like this and Kickstarter and Indiegogo etc work.
The 2 rulers are the "reward" you get for donating that $10.

Small typo on the Pozible page, Dave:

"Rulers will be shipped lose in envelopes using regular"

Should be "Rulers will be shipped loose in envelopes using regular"

Otherwise people will think the rulers will be lost!

Shall we get grammatical as well? First sentance:

"Many people have ask for one of the EEVblog PCB µRulers that I gave away at the Electronex trade show last year."

should be:

"Many people have askED for one of the EEVblog PCB µRulers that I gave away at the Electronex trade show last year."

but really, who cares. We are all getting Rulers!

Holy crap.  I hope you know someone you can hire to help you stuff envelopes.  I bet you break your target in the next hour or two and you'll still have 6 days left.

I noticed a possible error on the ruler. On the PCB clearance area, the >3km. Should it be >3kV?
