Ruler Drawing Step by Step Tutorial
Step 1: Draw the First Long Line
Start by drawing a long straight horizontal line. This will form the first long edge of the ruler.
Step 2: Draw the Second Long Line
Next, draw another long straight line parallel to the first one, leaving a suitable space between them. These two lines will form the two long edges of the ruler.
Step 3: Create the Basic Shape of the Ruler
Use short straight lines to connect the two ends of the long lines. This creates the basic rectangular shape of the ruler.
Step 4: Divide the Ruler into 10 Sections
Now use short vertical lines to divide the ruler into 10 equal sections. These marks represent the larger measurement units on the ruler.
Step 5: Add the Smaller Measurement Marks
Add shorter lines between the larger marks to create the smaller measurement units. Then draw a round hole near one end of the ruler as shown in the illustration.
Step 6: Add the Numbers
Finally, add the numbers from 1 to 10 along the ruler. Check the spacing and position of the numbers, then refine the lines to complete your ruler drawing.
