#3138 - Dimensional Lumber Tape Measure
Single-panel comic titled “Dimensional Lumber Tape Measure.” Top left text: “Dimensional lumber sizes are tricky. A ‘2x4’ is actually 1½" by 3½", and a ‘1x8’ is ¾" by 7⅞".” To the right, a lumber labeled “2x4” with dimension arrows: vertical '1½"' and horizontal '3½"'. Below left, two yellow tape measures: the first labeled “12'”; the second labeled “12'*”. To the right of them, text: “If you know someone into carpentry or woodworking, get them our dimensional lumber tape measure.” Middle: a long yellow tape labeled “Normal tape measure” showing inches 1 through 9 with tick marks. Below it, another long yellow tape labeled “Dimensional lumber tape measure” showing inches 1 through 10 with tick marks that are slight more narrow than those of the “normal tape measure”. Bottom caption: “Don’t tell them you got it — just leave it in their toolbox. They’ll appreciate the surprise when all their measurements work out!” Hidden text: "A person with two watches is never sure what time it is, especially if I got them one of the watches."
