Well, not all your customers need a pipe diameter tape measure. But these customers really need one. Why not give them one with your company logo imprinted on it?:
Oilfield workers
Gas field workers
Plumbers
Diameter Tapes
Car repair people
Boat repair people
Arborists
Pipeline inspectors
Municipal utility workers
HVAC installers and inspectors
Architects
Manufacturers
Building contractors
Building superintendents
If any of your customers are on this list, a pipe diameter tape measure with your logo will be visible to them every work day.
Pipe tally books aren’t just for the drilling industry. They are used by many other people to record readings and data in the field. They are small enough for a pocket, and water resistant. Tally Books with your company logo are a great way to “woo” your customers, if they are on this list:
Oilfield workers and inspectors
tallybook-in-the-field
Gas well workers and inspectors
Engineers
Survey companies
Electric power companies
Contractors
Geologists
Railroad workers
Environmentalists
Botanists
Zoologists
Biologists
News reporters
Truckers
Your corporate logo can be put on the front and back cover, even in full color. The new optional “stone pads” look like paper, but they are water resistant, and cannot be torn. If your customers use your tally books, they will look at your logo many times a day. That’s the best way to target your market advertising. They are also made in the USA.
Are you thinking about giving your employees a safety award for having no accidents in 12 months? If you want to use engraved Maglites, here are 5 valuable suggestions:
Plan ahead. Maglite engraving usually takes 1 or 2 weeks. It can be done faster, if you have a short deadline.
Happy Safety Award Employees
Find your best version of your company logo. Vector art is needed for a superior job of engraving. A hi resolution jpg will work, but the promotional product distributor needs to convert it to vector art, the language of laser machines.
Pick a reputable on-line Maglite representative, and one who communicates well with you.
Choose a Maglite that is the right size for your employees. The biggest one holds 4 D cells. The smallest one holds one AAA cell.
Give out your engraved Maglite safety awards at a dinner, or a special meeting. That makes the gift seem more valuable, and memorable.
Mr. Maglica was born in NYC during the depression, but raised in Croatia, his mother’s country of origin.

An architect scale ruler can come in many sizes and gradations. For now, let’s keep it simple, just to get started. Here is how these handy rulers can make reading a blueprint very easy.
First, look in the title block of the blueprint, which is usually located in the bottom right hand corner. It will tell you which scale to use. If it says: 1/4″=1′, then you will be using the 1/4 scale on the architect ruler. That means, 1/4″ on the blueprint represents 1 foot in the actual size of the object. If it says: 1/8″=1′, then you will be using the 1/8 scale on the architect ruler. Many other scales are used, because of the size limits of the paper the drawing is put on, and the actual size of the object or building or landscape.
Now, simply use the correct scale to measure the actual size of each part of the drawing.
Fine-tuning: You will notice that the zero mark is not the first mark on the scale. It is preceded by some very small gradations. These gradations could have been printed on the entire scale, but that would be very hard on the eyes. Let’s say you are measuring a line that is between 5 and 6 units. Now put the 5 mark on one end of the line. Look now to the other end of the line where it lines up with the very small gradations. Here you can read how much more than 5 units the line is.
If this sounds a little confusing, just give it a try, and you will see how easily you will catch on.
Encourage your employees to work safely, by giving Promotional Maglites® as

safety awards to your employees. Less “down time” will help your corporate profit.
Entice your long-time workforce to stay longer, by promising them a high-end Maglite®. This lessens the time and money you spend on training new employees.
At trade shows, pass out inexpensive Maglite® solitaires to interested contacts. Your generosity will help build new relationships and new orders.
Strengthen your bond with your best customers by giving them Promotional Maglites® With Your Logo. This could bring you great rewards.
Give Maglites® with your logo to all employees and guests at your company Christmas party. You will be a big hit, and you will be increasing the morale among all your workforce.
Promotional maglights (sometimes spelled this way) will surely boost the sales for your business.
Tally Books are similar to jotters, or pocket notebooks. All are useful for writing notes and small enough to keep in your shirt pocket or jacket pocket. What is different about “tally books”?
They are protected by a heavy duty vinyl cover, to help keep the pages dry when
Tally Book In The Field
you are working outside.
They have an optional “stone pad”. That is not paper, but it looks like paper. Stone pads are water resistant and you cannot tear them. If more people knew about them, they would prefer them over paper pads.
They have an optional clear vinyl 3 page insert. You can insert your own tables and data sheets for easy reference in the field.
For oil and gas industry users, the tally books have optional oilfield stock art which complements your company logo.
All-in-all, tally books are very rugged pocket notebooks for use in all kinds of weather. They are preferred by oil, gas, and wind energy companies. They use them for keeping track of repetitive data entries.
