Plan Reader Tape Measure
Builderscale. Mathematically impaired contractors, rejoice! Planreader tape measures are designed to make it easier to take measurements off blueprints in the field. On the reverse side of the tape are both the standard commercial construction 1/8-inch scale and the residential construction 1/4-inch scale. The markings represent the actual feet and inches drawn on the plan, thus eliminating the hassle of converting fractional numbers to feet and inches. In addition, the numbers on the front side are extra large, making them easier to see than on many other measuring tapes, the firm says. The tapes come in lengths of 16, 25, 30, and 35 feet. Cost: $8.96-$16.96. 201-837-1204. www.builderscale.com.
