I'll try to fix anything. As long as you can read this tape, it still works. However...
I think the biggest lesson learned is that it would have been cheaper to buy another one.
For only a Euro, you got you're money's worth out of that thing.
But thanks for taking the time to upload.

Okay so um I just broke a measuring tape, and I don’t understand anything of what you’re supposed to do, but my problem is that the measuring tape itself is tinted, and I can’t put it inside again!!

I didn't see the part where you can lock the tape in place after you have pulled it out. So does that part work also?

Good job, thank you! Not that saves a lot of money, but appreciate the way of thinking: never throw away anything that is repairable!( Or anything that you can use for some other purpose! ... So I have full basement of "sometimes maybe useful" things! :laugh:)
