I use a rolling measuring device, and my current Stanley has left me many times wanting to play baseball with a tree.

I want to buy a GOOD one. One that has a roller about a foot in diameter. One that will last and give accurate measurements.

Any suggestions?

TIA

Steve

I'm kind of partial to the brand, but Rolatape is the one I see most often. They have a bunch of models. As far as the accuracy, error is far more likely to come from operator error than the wheel circumference being read incorrectly or anything like that.

And I know they have an internet site, and it's rather disorganized as I recall. Good stuff, good prices. Surveyor stuff, and so forth.
