Thanks Dale, but this might be a stupid question. How do you know what the measurement actually is. I haven't seen one of these so am making some assumptions based on what I've read. My understanding is that you have a nut and a locking nut which I can only assume keeps the moving nut in place once set. So, I understand these are threaded rods and for each turn of the nut equals a measurement, i.e. half turn might be 1/16 of an inch etc. Since there are no tactual markings, how can you be sure you only turned it a half turn and not a half plus another 1/16? Perhaps I'm making much out of nothing, but I guess my understanding might be a little off or there's somethng I'm missing. I'm very interested in this because accurate measurements is a must and I can't tell you the number of baseboards for example I've screwed up because my measurement was off a little. I'll post a question on this subject in another message, but any comments etc. on this Rotomatic ruller is very much appreciated. I dont' mind spending the money if the tool is truly worth its weight in gold. I've got a number of project I want to start working on so this is timely.
