Hi!

I have a problem with measuring distance: I need a tool which is able to
accurately measure distances up to 1 meter, preferably some kind of laser
rangefinder. I cannot use a tape measure because there is limited access
to the place I want to measure. Do you know what type of tool should I
use?


One meter? As in about 39 inches? I'd use a yard stick or metal scale that
would go into the hole or whatever the laser light would follow. Mark a
stick and then measure the stick.
