I bumped into a problem this weekend. I needed a straight fence of above 2.3 metres in length to do some edge routing. I couldn't find anything in my small and basic shop that I knew was TRULY straight across this length. (found some particleboard scraps about 2 metres, but as I sighted down the long edge, I could see some dents, as well as a small curve in it.
What do you people use as a reference straight edge? (preferably something that stays straight for a while...iron, aluminium?)
thanks for your advice...
