– HEXAGONAL RULER 2.0 – Redefine Your Sketch Tool
Posted On
Hexagonal Ruler first launched on Kickstarter at 2017, there are more than 900 backers supported our project. We are so so so grateful that many of you are fond of our concept and design. In these 3 years, we synthesize our customers’ reviews and designer’s new ideas, so here comes to the Hexagonal Ruler 2.0.
Design
Hexagonal Ruler is a multi-functional and metallic ruler that is designed sketch handily in seconds. If you were an ambitious designer or sketching guy, this ruler is definitely made for you.
Flashes of inspiration are always unexpected. However, normal sketching tools are large in size and not easy to be used in public occasions like café or commute. Therefore, we design 3 pieces of rulers in a moderate size for ideas drafting at any time anywhere.
Each Hexagonal Ruler is only 72x62mm with diverse functions like compass, protractor and template ruler… Tailor-made case carries a set of professional tool along your design journey.
Hexagonal Ruler emphasizes on freedom, quick edits and free flow of ideas that are hard to reach in computers.
Concept
The deeper you look into the underpinnings of the universe, the more complex and interesting hexagons you will find, like honeycomb and bubbles. This is why Yuan creates the ruler based on the absolute symmetrical polygon – Hexagon.
Compare to traditional rulers, hexagon allows more functions to be built on. You will find multiple functions in a particular Hexagonal Ruler. Apart from that, users can easily put them in pocket and use instantly owing to the special shape of hexagon, .
By taking the advantage of size, Yuan believes Hexagonal rulers can assist users and their wonderful creations.
What’s NEW ?
New Functions & New Case
The unprecedented change of the Hexagonal ruler set is combining all functions into 3 rulers instead of 4, which means Less Rulers but More Functions. Moreover, the redesigned Leather Case is able to carry all 3 rulers, and hidden magnetic design is added for better portability with your sketch book all the time.
Functions & Details of each Hexagonal Ruler
– Point Ruler –
Protractor/ Circle 5mm – 120mm in diameter/ Spirograph pattern/ Straightedge
A little fine tune has been made on the Point ruler to facilitate the production process, lower scrap rate and finer output.
– Curve Ruler –
Protractor/ Corner rounder 5mm – 50mm in diameter/ Circle 1mm-4.5mm in diameter/ 12 & 24 hour watch design
– Polygon Ruler –
Protractor/ three to twenty-sided Polygon with 1 – 3 cm side length/ Straightedge/ Line in 0.75mm-2.5mm
2 ways to draw the 3 – 20 sided Polygon
1. A regular polygon is comprised by a certain number of Isosceles triangles, like a pentagon which is comprised by 5 Isosceles triangles. Polygon Ruler indicate the interior angle of each Isosceles triangle, you can easily draw three to twenty sided polygon by plotting lines and points
