Creative Geocache Containers/Ideas: Tape Measure Geocache

This is the fourth in a series of instructional videos on how to make creative geocaches.

[@MigasTEixeira]

OMG The best!!! We are some geocachers of Portugal and i think we are going to do this!!!

[@cvfamily4]

Wow! That was very creative! Might have to do one like that! Thanks for the idea!

[@GeoDarick]

I have seen caches like this on KZbin, but never found one myself. I think there is one in my area, will have to check it out. Thanks for the instructional video!

[@Metal94Productions]

made this yesterday and placed it a couple hours ago. Thanks alot for the idea!

[@TheGeocachingVlogger]

Nice... Well done.

[@pictom1]

Nice idea. For the wire hook and the wire attached to the tape measure, they can be the same wire. This way there is less chance of the taped wire coming loose over time.

[@RyanDuffy]

This is only 1 in the series that I like. But I really like it. Might just be my next hide

[@moleman1961]

Good idea! I think British weather would soon destroy the tape measure though!

[@MrBonan999]

Great idea!

[@SterlingB2122]

@pictom1 I never had any problems with the wire, but my tape measure finally seized up after being in place for 5 years. That was longer than I thought it would ever last. Here's the GC# of that cache: GC17J67

Nice! I hope I could use this idea for one of mine

[@kokohawk]

I've found a geocache like this before. I went with a group for it. As they were getting their pole extended I ended up climbing the tree and retrieving it for them.

This same technique is at one geocache in hamburg of germany, thats really cool thanks for the video... Im searching for some ideos to make a new cache thx :)

[@freepartysoundsystem]

mount the tape in a watertight bird box ;)

[@SterlingB2122]

Nice, let me know how it goes!

[@MrPoqsu]

How big this is? Micro... or other?

[@GucciGemini]

But what about the first time someone unscrews the top to get the log and let's it go?

[@SterlingB2122]

Do you have the GC#?

[@HROTHGAR71]

I see this in Selzach/Switzerland..

[@zentaquen]

nice idea

[@SterlingB2122]

I had to buy a replacement tape measure after 4 years of being in place. Got a Walmart Special for next to nothing.

[@32Pennies]

Cool idea. SUPER annoying background music!

[@smellslikeblackberries5355]
