Find a place in my tool chest

Where has it been all my life? Calculations in metric units are much easier than in inches. I will be using this flat tape measure for marking woodworking and metalworking projects. It's also handy for things around the house, like arranging custom-sized picture frames. It's nice that it still has markings every 16 inches to locate the posts. It won't replace regular 1 inch sheet tape for things like construction projects, but is useful in many cases. As some others have said, the return spring is very strong so care must be taken when loosening the band. It's no problem for me to do the stop/brake button with my finger at the bottom of the band. I'd rather have a strong recoil spring than a weak one that requires the band to be pushed back in.

Pros
  • Measuring and marking tools
Cons
  • Not sure
