How to\'s: Segmentata and Pilum
#8
Rulers... of course they had rulers.... you ought to see our reproductions. We also used the sharpie marker because the black ink stands out better in the photos than does pencil or an awl mark.

I myself use a scratch awl whenever possible and practical, and teach the guys to use the same.

The point of not showing a ruler in use was to illustrate that it can be done without a ruler. Why use one when you don't need to?
