@@HermeticChaosofficial The denominator has to change when your measurement changes and you have to keep these fractional conversions in your mind to have a proper understanding of the size. This is insane.
Super easy to use with all the buttons and functions… Also, that is not to mention the super easy to understand imperial measuring system that is used. Who needs decimals when you can have precision fractions. I don’t know how we have managed with such rudimentary tools and metric measurements for so long.
It's cool but there are two problems 1. A normal tape measure is still faster 2. It's not actually necessarily more accurate; if you measure 20cm with the same measuring tape, it will be even. It might however be useful for smaller scale and/or hard-to-get places, if you can make the band motorised (so that it goes in and out on it's own, possibly even calibrated to stop when it hits something) also probably more useful for imperial, because those numbers are way out of wack haha. For metric you rarely need more than meters/centimeters/millimeters and all of that fits neatly on a measuring tape.
We love our 957mm wide opening! By the way why is your base track all broken, how are you supposed to screw board to that? Also why do you have your self drillers sticking out of your door jamb? As former light-gauge engineer I'm pretending not to see!
This is right on par with digital calipers in terms of unnecessary digitization of analog equipment. If you can't read a tape measure, you shouldn't be using one. If you need a laser to tell you where you're measuring from, you're holding the tape too far from the thing you're measuring
Now tilt it 15 degrees to the left and line up the green line, the measurement will be different. Unless you are measuring the laser across a true 90degrees and measuring as close as you can to the reference point, then the measurement is not going to be as accurate. Point being you need to measure flat to flat, not corner to corner.
Imagine this thing’s battery dies. Then it’s just a chunky, unhandy, heavier and also noisy tool that takes way too much space and is way to expensive for what it’s supposed to do: MEASURING 😂
That right there will make doing sheet rock the best thing in the world, but I had a crew. Oh my gosh would have them. They have a back up one if their first one broke.
