   They can be difficult to find in the US from the usual suppliers, especially so without "dual scales." I usually find the wrong scale is on the side I need.

   You should check out leevalley.com, the Canadian-US supplier, who has a good selection. (Canada is on the metric system.)

   Checkout a local industrial tool distrubutor that sells Starrett Tools - they make both rules & tapes of very high quality but they do cost $ & will last many lifetimes.
