Review on πŸ“ Streamline and Simplify Measurements with the FastCap Flatback Story Pole Foot by Brent Peterson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Good Idea - Bad Execution

I like the idea of this band. And as advertised, it's flexible, so you can easily measure objects with curves. The tape itself is also one of the easiest to read I've ever had. But the one I received differed from 1/16 to 1/8 inch. I noticed this immediately when measuring a sheet of plywood, the dimensions of which I knew, and confirmed this with an electronic caliper and another tape measure, the accuracy of which I checked. And you can see that the band is not fully pressed against the stop.

Pros
  • Available in standard straight blade and metric/standard blade
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
