FatMax vs basic Stanley?
FatMax has 2x the standout (more reach without a helper) and BladeArmor that lasts 5x longer.
8m or 10m?
8m for most carpentry. 10m for framing big rooms. Beyond that, use a laser distance meter.
Why does the tape break?
Almost always from being yanked back too fast and slamming the case. Slow the return with your finger.
