Spring tape measures have been around since 1829. No matter which tape measure brand you use, they all have the same purpose with slightly different features.

The Moasure® on the other hand, offers something a little bit different, and perhaps particularly well suited to working on a farm.

After 20+ years of research, 10+ prototypes, and 1800+ software iterations the Moasure® ONE™ offers a motion-measuring tool.

With patented tech providing speed and accuracy, farmers will be able to measure anything from length, height, area, perimeter, angle, radius, gradient, rise, and run. As a farmer is measuring, the Moasure will simultaneously create a drawing on the farmer’s mobile device, allowing the farmer to save time, and get more done.

Anything from the area of an individual shape, measuring around obstacles, interiors, and exteriors of buildings, also being able to measure around circles, arcs, curves, change in elevation, and even 3-D models. Farmers will be able to efficiently measure matter in minutes, compared to a more time-worthy traditional measuring method.

The Moasure Pro app allows farmers to pair their Moasure ONE to an app via Bluetooth. This results in enabling all measurements to automatically transfer to the app to draw and calculate on the app, creating a convenient yet detailed layout of whatever the farmer may be measuring. If you want to share the drawings, Moasure Pro allows a farmer to export the drawings in up to 5 different types of formats.

Farmers can save even more time with the Moasure Stick, increasing efficiency even further. The ergonomic design allows the farmer to mount a smartphone at the top, along with a foam-lined enclosure that protects the measuring tool while reducing the risk of shock. Overall resulting in the farmer effortlessly guiding the Moasure ONE without the need to bend or reach into tight spaces.

The farming industry is an industry that can definitely use the funcationality offered by Moasure ONE.

The ToughBuilt® Reload Utility Knife is an innovative quick-change tool expertly crafted from pro-grade materials with a groundbreaking, patented mechanism that allows it to receive spring-loaded blade magazines and autoload a fresh blade with just a flick after discarding the used blade with the push of a button. Just like a standard firearm operation, the mags drop away clear, and a new one can be charged into the chamber with a snap.

Replacement of worn blades is safe and straightforward with a one-button blade-release function that extracts used blades before charging in a fresh one by simply retracting the actuator and flicking it forward again. With a simple press of the mag release, a positive, spring-loaded magazine ejection drops mags clear from the tool or into an open hand. A new magazine can then be loaded inside, making it easy to switch from one kind of blade to another in a flash.

All Toughbuilt mags are integrated with a lower chamber indicator switch. Positions 1, 2, or 3 remind the Pro which kind of blades are loaded in a magazine without extracting the mag from a pouch or pocket. Designed for rigorous cross-platform use, the Reload Knife utilizes quality construction featuring smooth aluminum alloy and zinc alloy for corrosion resistance. It is wrapped in rugged, grippy, non-slip rubber soft-touch housing to protect the tool from shocks and drops while creating a more dexterous hand purchase on the instrument.

The integrated finger ridge guard helps keep Pros safe while cutting robust materials. It includes a five-pack of ToughBuilt universal straight-edge blades and a five-pack of ToughBuilt’s specialized hook blades, which use an intelligent, precision-milled proprietary edge design. The blades work interchangeably with both the Reload Knife and the ToughBuilt Scraper Utility Knife or any standard utility knife.
