I have a 100' open reel that got broken at about the one-meter mark. Its a ragged break but no missing pieces, it fits back together like a puzzle piece. Question: How best to reattach the two pieces? Some type of glue with a strip acting as a splint? Who knows what's been tried? I have tried to contact several tape measure companies but I have had no luck with them giving me any help. Jon CAUTION: This email originated from outside UTSW.
