No lie, the best explanation I’ve heard for reading a tape measure! I’ll never forget or misjudge a /16” measure again!!! Thank you so much, can you explain angles and how to make them?!
I am starting my passion for diy furniture at 42 thank you for helping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bro . . . _legit_ 💯 THE BEST explanation I've ever heard ! Awesome job! 👏🏻I'm 48 and knew the basics but the way you broke down the 16ths was 🔥! Thx!
Clear, simple, and easy to pick up. Finally a video that wrapped my head around the measuring tape. Thank you glen!
Start a new job tomorrow at hortons emergency ambulance , I've always been able to read a tape just not as quick . A piece of paper, pencil and repeating how you said it in your video continuous times HELPS A TON !!! 5 minutes is all it took! Thanks bro knowledge is power and knowing is half the battle!!
Wow ! you're the first to break it down like that, in which definitely simplified measurements to me. Thanks a million! !
+Edison Norman Thanks man
All kids these days should see this.
+David Bishop Thanks
+David Bishop I agree!
I know my kids will be watching it when I get home tonight!
Thank you.
As a German who uses the metric system, I have finally understood what your Americans always use for strange subdivisions.
For those who still haven't understood, use the metric system!
about to start a job at a metal fabricator.. this saved my life. you sir deserve a Nobel peace prize
Thanks dude. Im 52 and struggled with this my whole life. I knew 1/8, 1/4,1/2,3/4 and 1. Only now is it much more clear. Thanks again.
Same here!
helped me a lot thank you very much, few people tried to explain it to me but it made the most sense when you explained it, have a great day!
Love your channel. I have spent 50+ years trying to teach coworkers how to read a tape. This is exactly how I TRY to teach them. Some will never learn, and some don't want to. Anyway, glad I found your channel. Interesting hacks and tips.
Glenn! Thank you so much. you've broken this down to it simplest form. It is the best video I've seen on how to read a ruler. I teach stagecraft middle school students. Your explanation demonstrates a visual and practical application with what they are being taught in their math classes. Thank you very much.
Well simplified and not too fast in explanation. Thanks
Very well done and you made it very easy to understand. Hats off to you sir
I love the way you're doing this thank you again

Awesome simplicity : Good on ya : I Have not used these measurements since 1965, when we converted to metric in Africa. Now i have to Learn this LOL`!!! Appreciated this
great demo well done great teaching 1 luv A.i NYC
ok so...... I really don't like to comment on a lot of things on youtube because...... well let's just leave it there but, watching this video reminded me how i was taught to read a tape measurer years ago but forgot. But it all came back to me after i watched this. Glenn, I watch all of your vids for this reason YOU ALWAYS DO THINGS THE SIMPLEST WAY TO YOU!! phew i guess you can tell how much that means to me although a lot of the ways aren't always as simple to me just because my skill level is no way near where your's is but i love the fact that you do things YOUR WAY (and that way is phenomenal). Don't want to rant, I just appreciate you dude. I have to get some of your plans once i go back to work this corona is real lol. I'm done.

Reading a tape measure,both standard and metric should be drummed into our kids heads from kindergarten to their senior year of high school..It would give them more confidence to tackle more home repairs and some remodeling around their future homes or apartments.
Great video!!! Thanks for sharing 👍🏼
+Veronica
Thanks !
This was great thx
God bless Metric System!
MrGeneralissimus true
The metric system sucks. It's not intuitive and the numbers get huge quick.
This makes sense. best video I found .Thanks alot .Prefer metric system over standard anyday. Only in America Rest of the world uses metric. Even Canada switched to metrics .
Thanks, I keep hearing that, I'll give it a shot. If it's easier sign me up.
men is very easy, 1km is 1000 meters and 1 meter =10 decimeters =100 centimeters = 1000 milimeters....
1 inch is 2.54 centimeters
1foot is 30.48 centimeters
1 yard is 94.44 centimeters
1 miles is 1609.34 meters or 1.6 km
Great tutorial man.
Thank you. Ill probably update this one soon. I seen where I could improve a bit.
Thank you!!
Cant believe Im learning this just now......but learning polynomials n shit came in sooooooo handy for real life situations.
thank's partner for sharing Excellent Video!!!!!

Thank You Sir
👍 wish someone had explained it like that years ago
best thing I've seen
Great demonstration for my students!
Thank you.
Bloody Genius!!!
Swift explanation dawg Thumbs up
Thank you
Thanks god wie have the metric sysytem
Thank you I think I understand a little more. Will probably watch this a few more times.
Why? Can't read fractions?
The metric system sucks. It's not intuitive and the numbers get huge quick.
If you look closely at the line marks, the half inch mark is half the length of a one inch mark, the quarter inch mark is one quarter the length of the a inch mark and half the length of a half inch mark, and so on. In other words, the length of each line provides a hint to it's purpose.
Nicely explained.
+CrankyPants Thanks
really useful...
Thank you so much
63 yrs old first time anyone had made it so easy for me xxx lol
Thanks bro 😀
Great video. 👍🏼
Thanks!
Awasome thanks..😁
that was easy thanks
What?!?! I thought everyone knew this since I was like 8. Thanks for reminding me that some people think differently.
It's a trap. Most people think others know how to read a tap, so they feel that they should know how to read a tap, so they never learn how to read a tap, because they already should know how to read a tap. And now I know how to read a tap.
TonyScandal - a trap or a tap? Oh no...
Thanks so much
good lesson thank you
