distance measuring wheel

A distance measuring wheel is a tool used to determine the length of a stretch of ground. It consists of a wheel mounted on a handle, which you roll along the surface. As the wheel turns, a mechanical or digital counter records the number of rotations, translating this into a measurement of distance traveled. It’s commonly used in construction, landscaping, or surveying to quickly and accurately measure lengths or perimeters of areas without the need for tape measures or electronic devices. It’s a straightforward, reliable instrument for measuring distances over uneven terrain or large spaces.
