Using the right tool for the job is more than a cliché. Whatever the job is, having good tools makes it more pleasurable, and, we might add, easier. FastCap bills itself as “innovative tools for the professional woodworker,” and although we’re not professional woodworkers, we do like to putter occasionally and we like what FastCap has to offer. In particular, we’re liking its ProCarpenter line of tape measures.
These tapes come in your choice of six different blade styles, including metric, left-right, flat back and story pole. (A story pole is a stick with markings used in construction to easily repeat measurements. The story pole tapes come with an edge that are easily marked, and erased, by pencil.) The tapes also have an erasable surface on one side of the case for making quick notes, and — this is very handy– a built in pencil sharpener.
These tapes are available at most woodworking stores and at Amazon
Hello. This is kind of an “unconventional” question , but have other visitors asked you how get the menu bar to look like you’ve got it? I also have a blog and am really looking to alter around the theme, however am scared to death to mess with it for fear of the search engines punishing me. I am very new to all of this …so i am just not positive exactly how to try to to it all yet. I’ll just keep working on it one day at a time Thanks for any help you can offer here.
