Center Scriber Line Scriber Woodworking Marking Offset Marking Tool Center Finder Tool Wood Scribe Marking Gauge Woodwork Measuring Tool

I made the initial mistake of thinking this tool would be useful for centerlining 2x4's since one of the images showed the (exterior) length to be 3.9 inches my brain said, "oh, well a 3.5 inch 2x4 should fit in that easily". Clearly i was mistaken. However, i was barely... BARELY... able to fit this over a 1x3 (2.5 nominal). I had to take 320 and 1000 grit to sand down the inside of the pegs enough to get it to slip on, and even with a smooth edge, it refused to slide, effectively giving me a wobbly line like i was drunk or had parkinson's when i drew it. The center pencil holder won't hold a traditional #2 Ticonderoga pencil, but it likes mechanicals fine. Except mechanical pencils run out of lead quickly and require you to remove it, click the pencil, and reset it, making this thing borderline useless, if not inefficient.It did come in handy though when i was mapping out peg-joints for a cabinet, as i could pop it on my 1x3's and mark reference points to come back with a straightedge and run my final line with.

Got this for my husband. He always working on things that he needs to measure out and make marks on it. So this helps him find the right measurements.you can mark the center and the fractions are marked on the tool so you can mark it. It can me used to to measure a variety of materials. It made out of durable material. It also attaches to anything that has metal so you can find it easy. It easy to use.

this product seems to be well designed and made, however the measurement sides seem to be identical and do not correspond to the inch markings. A normal pencil fits just fine and center marking is easy to do, however the two sides seem to be identical. whaqt is up?????

Simple to use

Easily finds and marks centers on pieces up to 2-1/2" wide. Convenient stepped scribe gauge for offsets. Strong magnet on one leg makes it easy to stow under the table saw. Buy one, you won't regret it.

Used for scribing center lines. Because of the design it failed to work very well. One reason being the center grip that holds the pencil was too big to hold the pencil very well. I actually ended up putting glue on one side of that center grip to reduce the size of the grip. Got a nice snug fit after that but... in my case unless one is using an exceptionally strong “lead” it either breaks too easy or the line it scribes can barely be seen. It far easier and more accurate to simply scribe a center line using a straight edge. This piece of plastic was mostly useless.

This is a perfect tool for finding the center line on pieces of wood. It is easy and durable and should be part of any wood workers tool box.

Simplicity is always the best way to go. This tool is simple but very handy in the shop.Recommended!

A nice easy to use little unit, very accurate too
