For those interested in a cheap straight edge [600mm level or 800mm level] Check out Trade Tools who have them on special for $21.90 and $24.00

Every now and then the 1200mm comes on special - last time was $20.00 from memory - it helps if you become a member of their "specials club" [totally free] and you get an email each week of the goodies on special.

These levels can easily do double duty as a straight edge for a router or saw.

Check it out and see if it suits - no affiliations etc just a happy customer.
