Mike, just a thought, did you know that there was a blind DIY type list?  Think 
it's called the blind handyman list.  Might be on the directory at 
www.whitestick.co.uk
 
The addy is though,  blindhandyman-subscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 

 
Best wishes

        Hi,
         
        Yes, I tried resetting it and cleaning the tape etc.
         
        A Braille one is not accurate enough. I am building a raised decking 
platform, about 22 by 33 feet, on which a log cabin style house shall be placed 
upon.
         
        For use with a compound chop saw, a Braille tape would not be all that 
accurate.
         
        Thanks for suggestion though.
         
        Regards,
         
        Mike

                Mike,
                 
                Why don't you go for the Braille tape measures? They are far 
better and same quality as a regular one and even look just like a regular tape 
measure except that it has dots on it.
                 
                I whole heartedly agree with Andy about blind-specific  items 
being too ugly and of inferior quality as most of the mainstream stuff.  On top 
of that, we pay a higher price for all that.  I too buy as much mainstream 
equipment as possible, i'll just make sure that it is perfectly usable for me.  
However for specific things like a tape measure for instance, I got the Braille 
one.
                 
                Take care,
                 
                Lyn & Twinny
