WOODWORKING TAPE MEASURES


One essential skill is all I ask...

 

A tape measure is THE critical tool for any woodworker, so getting the right one is important. The right tape measure will improve your accuracy and make your woodworking hobby more enjoyable.

But first let me suggest THE MOST IMPORTANT SKILL when it comes to tape measures... Learn how to clip it onto your pants. For men it comes naturally. They clip keys, and PDA's, and the proverbial 24 function pocket knife all to their belt line, but for women it is a little less natural.

So the tape ends up down on the workbench and you spend countless amounts of time looking around for your tape's last resting place.

Take it from one women's 25 years of experience and train yourself from day one, to clip your tape measure to your jeans. It's like learning to type with all ten fingers. It will serve you well for your entire woodworking career.
