I have a gap into which I want to insert a cut piece of wood.
[More detail available if necessary.]

The gap is around 345 mm but there is a slight recess so I can't eyeball
a tape with the exact measurement (although I haven't found that very
accurate when I'm doing it anyway).

I thought of a sliding measure which could be locked when it fitted the
internal dimensions.

I looked on line but they all seem to be 1 metre plus minimum length.

Does anyone know of such a measure or have a sneaky alternative method?

I was hoping to set a rigid measure, then transfer the measurement
directly to a piece of wood which I would then cut to fit exactly.

Stumbled across this.

I've ordered one with a (hopefully) matching folding rule.

It seems to do the job.

There was an associated video which showed it doing more or less what I
want to do.
