Good Evening Friends,
Before the folding rule with the brass extension for measuring inside measurements, there was a method used for the same thing.
Can you think of what that method was?
Respectfully, :)

Get a bit of string and cut it to the same size as the inside dimension of whatever you sre measuring, Then get your folding rule with the brass extension for measuring inside measurements and measure the bit of string on folding rule with the brass extension for measuring inside measurements.
Good Evening Robert,
The correct answer for the quiz is to take two thin pieces of wood and hold them in the center and slide then each way till they contact the surface of what is to be measured and while holding it firmly measure the length to arrive to the inside measurement of the object.
Respectfully, :)
