Review on πŸ“ Complete Precision with the General Tools 147 Fractional Extra Large: A Must-Have for Accurate Measurements by Brett Morrison

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Big problem, everything else is great

Love this tool. I saw wood and did carpentry work. This is my second and perfect for me because it doesn't measure up to 128 which doubles the total shown and is confusing when a single 32 inch tolerance is really all I need. Great feeling from him. heavy enough Continuous. What's happening? Nice that you asked. Changing the battery is a nightmare. The instructions contain only one letter indicating where the battery is located. an intuitive tiny short screw that pops out once it's allowed to get lost in a normal store environment, finishing your job until you miraculously find it or buy another. Good luck with it. I've seen all sorts of battery trays, installed UPSs, and cases. This is by far the worst. No logic. No instructions. To make matters worse, you have to replace the included "test" battery with the real battery held so securely in the foam sleeve you end up with. Tearing the foam pad just to get it free. General Tool: At least add clear battery instructions and I give this great tool the five stars it deserves.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automatic
