Problem

I needed an L square and straight line drawing guides, but I saw some issues with the tools available:

  1. I needed varying sizes, from small to very VERY long (> 3ft/1m)

  2. I didn't want to buy more tools

  3. I didn't want to combine multiple yardsticks and deal with keeping them straight

  4. I didn't want to store long, awkward tools

Solution

I made a modular L square and straight drawing guides connected by magnets!

  1. You can make your drawing guides as short or long as you need, and you change lengths on the fly.

  2. PETG is super cheap.

  3. Thanks to the powerful 8mm x 3mm magnets and keying, lines stay straight and self-correct, while lasting longer than a pressure-fit keying solution.

  4. Each piece is 200mm, and stores compact (and magnetically, depending on how you arrange your magnets).

When connected, these pieces should form reliable straight lines with no gaps. Notches are spaced every 50mm, and the straight pieces are 200mm, allowing the seams to double as a notch.

Notes

The magnets used are 8mm x 3mm. I'm sure this is overkill, but I wanted to ensure pieces really stuck together reliably and could be picked up and displaced without coming apart. The holes have a 0.4mm tolerance, so super glue is required. 

I've provided a picture showing the required magnetic orientations (N - North, S - South).

Printed at 0.3mm PETG myself, but tolerances are in place to account for different nozzle sizes.
