Deal Details
It was on clearance in store for $9.97 but rang up $6.17 so it's YMMV since I'm seeing some stores with slight variation in price.

I saw this item marked for clearance for $15 in store a few weeks back. Seems like I've been waiting forever for this price drop lol

I found it unmarked at my local lowes, but it rang up at the discounted price.

How's the flex using this as a straight edge for a saw or router?

Lowe's clearance deals are always YMMV, and you would have to either use Brickseek or go to the store to confirm the price posted. Most often you can't buy these deals online.

Lowe's link is now showing "This item is unavailable for purchase online".

Curious about this too. A couple of the reviews say it's great but there are far more saying it's terrible.

I have this. I do get quite a bit of flex when it's set up. If the small bar connecting the 2 pieces were longer it may help. I usually set up a clamped board perpendicular to the straight edge in the middle to add support.

I have had this for a few years. I use a ridged straight edge to set it up when I need it. It comes in two pieces that are joined with a connector. If you connect them straight then It works well. I do not have room to store it connected so I set it up each time.

FYI, the label on the shelf hadn't been updated to reflect the clearance price. The price that Brickseek showed is the one that rang up for me.

My Lowes shows 10 in stock at $6.17.

Going to go over tomorrow to get one. Could use a long metal straight edge.
