Swanson Tool SVPS16M1 16-Feet Magnetic Savage Proscribe Tape Measure;

The Magnetic Savage Proscribe tape measure from Swanson Tool features a patented innovative, retractable scribe guide and centering pin to help contactors' measure and mark to cut lengths and radiuses. The patented Proscribe integrates several valuable marking functions, including the compass-like ability to measure and scribe circles, as well as the chalk-line-accuracy to measure and mark/score straight lines. The retractable 1-1/2" rigid scribe guide allows contractors to transfer a specific measurement by sliding the guide along the edge of a board or drywall sheet, while the reinforced tip is used to mark the work piece. Users can also easily position a case knife or carpenter's pencil against the tape's metal tip to cut, score or mark the desired width. The tape's heavy-duty metal tip also helps draw forward the scribe-guide element (when unlatched) through two magnets mounted to the innovative guide. Clearly marked every 1/8" from the 1' mark and up, the wide blade marks off feet, as well as Inch. Available in 16' and 25' versions.
