When i see a tape measure I think of construction or getting measured by a doctor. I see tape measures all the time but some people use them for different things such as; Height, length or width. When i see a tape measure i think of all different kinds of construction. There could be construction workers building a house, construction workers building a fence or even taking something down. i have used a tape measure before in school. But i have never used one at home. i think i have a tape measure so when i get home im gonna use it and see how tall i am.people use tape measures to measure the length around some one's foot, wrist, or waist. I used a tape measure to measure the length around my arms before.
