Saturday, August 14, 2010 Sainath sriram 3 comments

How a ruler looks like? Even a kid can answer this question or he may even show his own ruler from his stationary box!! Every student needs a ruler for his academic purposes from KG to PG. Trend has been changed. The new trend is making things micro sized. From computers to televisions we are obtaining micro versions. The same concept is applied here in the case of a ruler. What if you can draw lines of 30 centimeters or even 50 centimeters with a ruler of 4 centimeters length?? Sounds strange??
Designers modified the size and shape of the ruler concept and brought us a simplified ruler which is very compact, impressive, portable, cost effective and even eco friendly. This one I guess is a trend setter.
