No one can say no to a delicious homemade pie. Whether it’s apple, coconut cream, or pumpkin, a slice of fresh pie just hits the spot.
Today is National Cherry Pie Day, so have that be your flavor of choice just for today.
Did you know . . .
Before you slice into your cherry pie, you can grab your pipe diameter tape measure and calculate the diameter of this baked good!
Sure, you can measure completely normal and expected items with a diameter tape measure: pipes, trees, poles, etc. But how about we get a little crazy today and think of bizarre things that we can measure.
– water bottles
– your leg
– tater tots (it’s National Tater Tot Day!)
Sure, a pipe diameter tape measure is typically used to (surprise!) measure the diameter of a pipe. But did you know that it can also be used to measure the diameter of many other things?
Making gingerbread houses is a fun pastime in many households during the holiday season. They are not known for being easy to make, but if you have the patience and can get it right, they are beautiful.
For the most part, gingerbread houses that are made during the holiday season are square or rectangular. But perhaps think outside the box this time and make a cylindrical one.
A pipe diameter tape measure will be key to measuring your festive house, and maybe you can even invent a new holiday game: Guess the diameter of the gingerbread house!
Happy holidays!
Have you heard about the new secret tool to help you choose the best Christmas tree this year?
It is none other than the trusty diameter tape measure.
Sure, you can use your eyes to look for the tallest, widest, bushiest tree… but it’s not until you measure the stump with your diameter tape measure that you will truly know the tree’s age.
Just stick it in your pocket when you’re heading to the Christmas tree farm!
A tape measure can solve basically one problem….How long is the item? But a pipe diameter tape measure can solve a short list of problems for you.
Even if the pipe is distorted, and the cross sectional diameter would be different in different directions, you can do it. The pipe diameter tape measure can tell you what the diameter would be, if it weren’t distorted. That’s because the measurement is based on the circumference. The tape automatically divides by pi (3.14159) for you.
