Have you ever had trouble measuring in hard to reach places, not anymore! It is not an ordinary ruler...
Situated between a folding ruler and a tape measure, this handy measuring tool combines the best of both worlds. Extendable, yet rigid due to the sliding action. And above all: in handy pocket size!
Use it to measure the for instance interior distance under a cabinet or bed, in an enclosed space, in a corner or just as a normal ruler for in between measurement.
The operation / construction is very unconventional because you measure between 2 surfaces in sections. Because the measument is done in sections the scale is also in sections and the numbering seems not logical, which may confuse many, but it simply works! Just give it a try!
Reading the measurement is done directly, no calculation needed. Just read the measurement at the bottom of the last (partly) extended section. It is visualized and explained further in the 2nd added photo above, where the measuring ruler is
