Matt,
Take a look at the available tape measures to be sure that the edges of
the tape is not sharp enough to cut. I use 30' tapes (Stanley, FatMax,
etc.) and if you are not paying attention when you have the tape rewind
and your finger is against the edge, you can get a pretty painful cut!
It might be good to release some of the tension on the tape so it will
retract slower, or just by a junk tape that doesn't retract fast from
the start!
Peace,
Pat
