  1. How to turn a €8 tape measure into a €61 forestry tape measure.

    Small bit of stainless steel scrap from a dead deep well jet pump, cut, grind, drill.

    Two M3 stainless bolts, grind one pointy, fix into the scrap with a nyloc nut and the other to attach scrap to measuring tape.

    Works and yes, you can release it from the far side by flicking the tape, just like the expensive one.

    I'll add a carabiner and probably a safety cork to keep the pointy bit secure.
