Extremely useful for gardening

I bought this on a whim as I recently bought a new house and wanted to put in new beds and start a small orchard. Breeders, buy one of these things now. Welcome back. I used a regular tape measure with ropes and such to measure around the garden when I wanted to place trees and shrubs or plan beds. Ha. I didn't even know what was wrong with me. This device is excellent and so easy to use as it comes with a grounding rod to hold one end for you. With this item, you won't have to ask your spouse to reluctantly stand in the scorching sun holding one end of a tape measure while you plan your dream garden and he plans to pack his bags and flee at night. Say goodbye to asking your four-year-old to hold still and hold on to the end of that rusty metal tape measure that you should have thrown away years ago. Admit it. Each of us has one. Fasten the end of this amazing little thing and you can easily measure the curved lines of garden beds yourself. No more ropes or cords. I've used it so many times it's ridiculous. Now I measure distances between random things in the garden for no reason, but damn I feel so formal when I unroll this flexible tape. I love it. Call me crazy but it's easy and fun. I have now correctly spaced the trees, marked the front and back yards for garden plots and paths and can tell you the exact distance between my shed, garage and chicken coop. All. Vicinity. Victory. Buy one. Never look back.
