You might require a small scale of 6 inches length for your Math assignment but may not have a real one. Don’t fret. A printable 6-inch or 15 cm could be the solution. It is graduated in millimeters (mm) and centimeters (cm) on one side and inches (in) and its fractions on the other. The standard size six-inch ruler can be utilized flexibly in sewing, craft projects and drawing too.
You can freely download and take the print in 8.5 X 11-inch paper for use. It is different from other such online rulers due to its accuracy as most of them are not to scale. We have provided a set of three rulers for kids. If you need a bigger ruler, you can print our 12-inch printable ruler.
I printed the 6-in ruler out—
When it prints it’s only measuring around 5 – 5 and 1/2 in..
Is there a way to get it to print to true size?
The printables are all actual size. We have re-checked the printable ruler from our end. It is absolutely correct. You are setting your real (physical) ruler from the wrong point. Set the “0” of your physical ruler at the line just before the end of the ruler marked as “inch” or “cm”. You will see that the markings are absolutely correct.
