I'm going out on a limb here but I'll bet it well take a lot longer to reel in the string.....unless you tie it to Lassie and have somebody call her (I believe Lassie was a female) for supper.

Of course you must add the two measurements together for the final length. Guess I'm just old fashion ----or too lazy to make a story stick (or both)! I'm a klutz. Tried the folding rule and slide out thingie. It's too easy for me to bump the slide out thingie, either as I take it out of the cabinet or using it to set the fence or stop block. I just want the actual physical length. Couldn't care less about the numbers.

October 10, 20187 yr @DuckSoup, thanks but, no thanks. But, I do appreciate your reply. Using my story stick I go from the cabinet, box, etc. directly to the saw. No intervening steps involved. AND, NO NUMBERS
