The tape measure is a very common tool in life, but we often find that many of its designs are difficult to understand when using the tape measure. In fact, every seemingly strange design on the tape measure is not a chicken rib. It's just that we don't understand their real use. Here we are going to reveal the secret of the tape measure 4 secrets, they will let you re-understand how clever the design of this commonly used tool is. If you look closely at the tape measure, you will remember that there is a hole in the hook of the tape measure. The following picture will make you understand instantly ~ yes, it can be stuck on the nail like this, and then you don't need another hand or another person to help you fix the tape measure. 2. The edge of the tape measure hook is not flat, but toothed. Its use is when you need to draw a line at the measurement place and there is no pen in your hand. Hold it down and rub it at the position where you need to draw a line to help you identify it. 3. The position of the foremost end of the tape measure can be moved, and the length of the first grid is generally shorter than that of the second grid. Many people think that the design of this activity will affect the accuracy of the tape measure. However, in fact, the flexible hook of the tape measure is a very important quality requirement of the tape measure. In fact, when using a tape measure to measure the outer diameter of an object, you need to pull the tape back so that the measurement result is accurate. If you measure the inner diameter of an object, the tape measure hook itself has a thickness, and you need to retract the movable distance. This is why the front end of the tape measure is designed to be flexible. 4. The last secret about the tape measure is the number on it. We often see that the tape measure is marked with a number, but we don't know its purpose. For example, the tape measure is marked with the number 3. What is it used for? In fact, it represents the length of the tape measure shell. Suppose you measure the length of the window and you can't read the exact number at the corner. At this time, the number marked on the tape measure will play a huge role. You need to place the tape measure on the same plane, the tape measure's shell is stuck at the bottom, and then read the length on the tape measure, plus the length of the tape measure itself 3 feet, and you get the exact length of this distance. In those years, we thought that the unnecessary design contained such a mystery. It turned out that the design of the tape measure was far more magical than we thought, and these secrets were magical enough that we had not known for so many years.

Next, we are going to reveal the 4 secrets of the tape measure. They will definitely let you know how clever the design of this commonly used tool is.

1. If you look closely at the tape measure, you will remember that there is a hole in the hook of the tape measure. The following picture will make you understand instantly ~ yes, it can be stuck on the nail like this, and then you don't need another hand or another person to help you fix the tape measure.

2. The edge of the tape measure hook is not flat, but toothed. Its use is when you need to draw a line at the measurement place and there is no pen in your hand. Hold it down and rub it at the position where you need to draw a line to help you identify it.

3. This position at the forefront of the tape measure can be moved, and the length of the first grid is generally shorter than that of the second grid. Many people think that the design of this activity will affect the accuracy of the tape measure. However, in fact, the flexible hook of the tape measure is a very important quality requirement of the tape measure.

In those years, we thought that the superfluous design contained such mysteries. It turned out that the design of the tape measure was far more magical than we thought, and these secrets we didn't know for so many years were magical enough.
