Re: Stanley Tape Measures - The New Line


Finally!!!

A tape measure that knows what a CH is!

I personally swear by the FatMax 40' with the 13' standout. It's a big summumabish, but I can't go back to anything else.

Re: Stanley Tape Measures - The New Line


A guy who works for me needs one of these. When he calls out measurements to cutman its always like " 77 9/16 slightly heavy, leave half the line. And this is when were framing. Thank God I never trim with him.
