Nearly perfect. best measuring and marking tools

I use them professionally, measuring the diameter of trees in tenths of an inch. I measure 30-40 trees a day. The color will wear off over time after hundreds of measurements. I never had any of those mechanical errors, it just got hard to read. Wait. My ends snapped off too and I swallowed the tape. I always tape the ends with tape to prevent this. I nubbin an inch or an inch and a half to get a grip. I have never had any problems with this modification. If durability could be improved this…

Pros
  • Easy to read bold graduations
Cons
  • So far so good

There must be fakes in the tape measure

I use many of them for a couple of decades or more at work, daily. They usually last about a year before the tape finally breaks. Sometimes you have to take them apart and clean the spring or re-tension it when it gets weak, but that's easy. I never erase the numbers, they just cut off the ends. I love them and depend on them. I carry an MM in my left pocket and an inch in my right. These new ones are not of the quality I expected and have received in the past. These may be fakes and not…

Pros
  • Sturdy metal case in polished chrome
Cons
  • New competitors have appeared

Nice tool but could be a bit more accurate

This is an easy to read tool for quick diameter/circumference measurements. My only issue is that when I read the diameter (at least when measuring an 18" roll circumference) it's off by about 10 mils (0.010"). The roll I measured was exactly 18 inches on one side of the tape. I also tested this measurement with another tape. Reading the diameter with this tape, it read 5.72. Using the Pi to find the diameter 18"circumference gives you 5.729582791". I don't expect this tape to read that…

Pros
  • Pocket sized for easy storage and portability
Cons
  • Easily torn
