Review on πŸ“ Enhanced Left Handed Tape Measure with Protective Rubber Guard by Roy Whetstone

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Metrics ruin everything. .

I bought three different left handed tape measures to try with my crew. We're going to draw from right to left on our table saw and want to mark with a pencil in our right hand. LEFT-HANDED has a metric at the bottom of the ruler, making it useless for our purpose unless I try to mark the plaque at the top of the tape measure. nope This tape goes in the trash can. I bought the green one which printed really SMALL. which I can use personally, but my 35 year old foreman in his 50's can't read the small numbers on the green. We also bought the red one from Task and it has a nice big font. My friend chose it. She doesn't have ALL the qualities of a Stanley right hand, but she gets the job done and has 16 O/Cs marked red. and hung by the left thigh without turning it over. LAME! But the metric centimeters on the LEFTY stamp killed me on this one. just useless on an American construction site.

Pros
  • The perfect tool for the left handed or left handed carpenter who will do almost any job
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
