I also had weghängen the tape only once. It really stinks pretty doll. In addition, my order does not match the picture. According to figure the measuring tape is completely yellow. For me, however, it is black / yellow alternately by all 10 centimeters. The tape is made, according imprint of "Fiber Glass". The ends are fitted with metal brackets, making it easy the ends not to let slip away when pulled taut. However, a clamp is wrong (less than 1 mm difference), but when measuring it rarely comes to the millimeter to. Back has an inch scale, which was not described in the product text, but of course I do not mind.
Despite the rather poor rating because the tape really bestial stink!
