The retractable tape measure seems to have largely replaced these, although when you use one, you may just find they are quite handy. This is feet\/inches, not metric, and is 36\" long.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is something very nice about the way these feel. Maybe it's not having the weight\/cumbersome-ness of the tape measure, especially when measuring boards. Or maybe it's how boxwood and brass feel together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for quick guestimates. A few advantages over a tape measure: you can use one-handed, and for some hard-to-reach areas, like above your head, they stay rigid and are easier to use. Plus you can use it semi-fold-up to sight\/determine angles. But if just measuring for highly accurate to the 32nd of an inch, a tape measure is going to be better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTry it.
