Decimal Inch Tape Measure

Several years ago I had a Decimal Tape Measure. It does not read in feet and fractional inches but rather feet and decimal inches. Apparrently someone else liked it better than me, it came up missing. I have finally found one again at Amazon 25 Foot Decimal Tape Measure.

At $14.95, it will not break the bank. Try it on for size, sure beats a lot of mathematical conversions when laying out my metal working projects.

At that price I’m tempted to throw it in the machine shop tool box to mess with the centimetre people.

Next thing you know, someone’s going to lose a Mars orbiter because of this.

I’m sure Apple will get on board with USB-C just as the next standard is rolling out.

They are starting my iPad Pro has usb c and all four plugs for my Mac book pro are usb c. I have never seen Apple shy away from charging me $75 for a new certified adapter dongle thingy. :wink:
