I summon the pafoa minds on 100' tape measures

[Huntingdonhavoc]

Here's the thing. I'm on the hunt for a 100' tape measure that adds up. As is how a regular tape measure adds up the inches. Every single 100' tape i've found has the feet graduated up and at every foot goes 1-12" inches. This is no good haha. I've been put on a mission to find one and am coming up dry.

Any of you guys have a clue of a brand that does this?
I'll be forever greatful and in your debt....

I believe he is looking for tape that reads in inches and feet. such as 9 feet 8 inches.

What he said.

And? all 100' tapes I've seen go to 1/16th, at least.

I'm just guessing here.LOL

Do the tapes you have looked at have the foot readings spaced between the 12" spread?


IE 33' 6" would have a small 33' indicator midway through the 12" between foot numbers.

I'll have to do some research on this.

ok let me clear it up

a normal tape measure goes in inches only

meaning 15 inches reads fifteen inches on the tape not 1 foot 3 inches as does a 100 foot tape. I'm looking for a hundred footer that reads in inches. Not one that only break everything down in feet and 1"-11" in inches.

Good:

1" 2" 3" 4" 5" 6" 7" 8" 9" 10" 11" 12" 13" 14" 15" 16" 17"

Bad:

1" -2" -3" -4" -5" -6" -7" -8" -9" -10" -11" -1 foot -1' 1'' -1'2''-1'3''.....

Does that make anymore sense?

So you want it to read in inches only?
