This is by far the best stakeout/measuring tool I have! I've been looking for something like this for years. I saw a YouTuber using it and went hunting. The downside for some of you is that this is a metric system. My best advice to you is to overcome your reluctance to use the metric system and just switch. I am an old sack and was able to switch completely and have never regretted it. This has greatly reduced measurement errors as there is no need to deal with fractions. I would buy this again! This is good quality.
