ABSTRACT:
An attachment for a flexible tape measure. The tape measure includes a tape having calibrations marked on it. The attachment has a bracket slidably received with a frictional fit on the tape. The fit requires application of a slight force to move the bracket. A housing is formed in the bracket, and a magnet is received in the housing and positioned to align with an end of the tape, parallel with the calibration marks. The attachment allows multiple uses of the tape measure, for example, as a level and a square.
