Is there a cheaper source or other brand?

Check out Enco, or MSC. They sell straight edges'.

What is it the kids say? In before Snap-on bashing!

You might try your local auto parts store. If one has a machine shop, I would check there. I live in Oregon and we have CARQUEST here. I got a 24" for about $35. It came with a nice teflon cover, and has not let me down in the 3 years I have owned it. Good luck.

You might try this one, http://www.tooltopia.com/central-tools-central-lighting-6429.aspx. I bought this one a week or so ago. Have used it once so far. Seems alright.
