Abstract
A tape measure includes a housing having an interior surface with a post mount protruding therefrom, and a post having a shaft extending from a keyed shape. The post and the post mount are configured such that the post is slid laterally along the interior surface until the post mount is received in the keyed shape. The keyed shape is configured to prevent rotation of the shaft relative to the housing once the keyed shape is received in the post mount.
