Most big box stores have them. Occasionally I’ll spot one at a local hardware store. While I prefer to shop local here is the same brand of the one I show (which I bought several years ago)- with a slightly different case.

Heavy is a term to describe a 16th of an inch. So if I’m cutting trim and I need a really tight fit, if my measurement is a little above 3/8” then you’d say 3/8” heavy. Most imperial tape measures have 16th marks but it’s impractical to say 7/16ths. You can also just go metric and never need to utter this phrase at all.

Imperial units, geez :D
I know, while I’m from the states I’d support a full metric conversion at any moment.
Hey can you cut me a piece that’s 43 and 13/64 long?
woodworkers all over the planet use it
@@ShadowZero27I'm a woodworker. Never seen one until now 😊
@@ShadowZero27 "all over the planet" like in "United States, Liberia, and Myanmar only", u mean?
:D
@@icandothat905 Nope, I can't for my life :D
Ey, good to know you are a sensible gentleman
Thanks for taking the time to do this vid. I've never seen a tape like that, but I will look for one now.
Glad it was helpful. I use this thing all the time. I had to put up a shelf today and needed to put a bracket in the middle, makes life a lot easier.
I was unaware such a thing exists. I'm curious where to get one now.

I don't get what you mean when you say "heavy"
