[Shop-talk] kids tool bench

[Todd Walke]

         Speaking of tape measures for a child, I have a 3-foot keychain 
tape measure like this:
<http://www.ultimatekeychains.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=249> 
Also can be found on eBay.
         Just the size for small hands.  No sharp edges on mine (put tape 
in my mouth to test).  Doesn't it retract too fast.
         I actually carry it on my keychain - as a delivery driver I need 
to know dimensions of packages I'm carrying so I can charge appropriately.

         This might keep him busy for a bit.  88 pieces!  I would've killed 
for this as a kid!
