Dachshund Shaped 15 cm Ruler
A sausage dog ruler with a 15 cm scale along its long, straight back. The 0 sits right where the neck ends, so you can measure and draw straight lines from the very first mark.
It is a fun, useful piece for the desk, the craft table or the sewing box. It also brings a small smile to anyone who loves dachshunds.
Details
- Size: approx. 290 x 136 mm and 3 mm thick
- 15 cm scale with millimetre, half centimetre and centimetre marks, numbered 0 to 15
- Raised white marks, numbers and eye on a red dog, with an engraved ear line
- PLA plastic, printed in two colours. The colour comes from the plastic itself, with no paint
- The marks follow a 1 mm scale, but this is a 3D printed novelty ruler, not a certified measuring tool
- 3D printed by me in Dublin, Ireland
Colours
The dog is red as in the photos unless you choose another colour. Write it in the order form: White, Cream White, Grey, Black, Cherry Red, Red, Pink, Sunny Orange, Pumpkin Orange, Apple Green, Mint Green, Olive Green, Mustard Green, Ice Blue, Soft Blue or Cobalt Blue.
Want brown or tan to match your own dachshund? Send me a message before you order and I will tell you which shades I can do.
Great for
- Dachshund owners and sausage dog fans
- Desks, home offices, craft tables and sewing boxes
- Teachers, students and anyone who still draws by hand
- Stocking fillers and Secret Santa
Care
PLA plastic softens in heat, so keep it away from radiators, sunny windows and hot cars. Wipe it with a damp cloth. It is a ruler, not a chew toy, so keep it away from your dog.

Before you buy
Every piece is 3D printed to order in Dublin. Because it is built up layer by layer in plastic, please know what to expect:
- Fine layer lines are part of the look. The surface is not smooth like moulded plastic. You may see or feel the lines where each layer was printed.
- The side that was printed against the build plate has a fine texture from the textured PEI plate I use.
- Small seam marks can appear where each layer starts and ends. They look like a thin line or tiny bumps.
- Small marks or tiny spots can appear, especially where one colour meets another. They come from the printing process and cannot be wiped off.
- Colours can look a little different from the photos, depending on your screen and the light.
These are normal for 3D printing and do not affect how the item works. Because each piece is made to order, no two are exactly alike.
If you have any questions before you buy, send me a message and I will be happy to help.
