What our customer's say!

"To Big", . This is all it says it will adjust every which way but it is so big I have no place in my carpenter's apron to put it. It works great for some things but it is just too big, so you can't carry it with you. You have to put it down which in construction does not work well you have to have it with you.

"I tossed mine", Cheap plastic, doesn't hold adjustments, clunky and awkward. I bought it initially for the broad, flat surface, thinking this ideal for wall and floor scribing, and because the brass parts made it appear to be better than it is. I found it almost unusable, tried to get used to it for a while and finally tossed it. 2 stars for minimum usability. I recommend the tried and true compass or dividers. If you want a high-quality set, try West Marine - they have quite a variety for charting purposes. Stay away from the cheap stamped steel school models, and don't buy a set without a lock. A very good set is the C.S. Osborne model carried by Woodcraft. It is heavy-duty and has a nice fine adjust mechanism. Pricey at about $65-$70, but will last a lifetime.

"Tight scribes", Good for scribing trim to walls. Flat bottom for accrate scribes. Must have for stain-grade trim.

"New Model Improved", This Product has been improved and the nuts will now hold it in place. If you have one that does not work contact FastCap [...] and they will replace it or take care of you in a way that will satisfy you. Their customer service is unbelievable! If there is a way they can improve it let them know, they'll listen!

"Nice tool", The joint makes it easy to work with. The only thing I would like to see changed is the pencil holder. I would like to be able to use a mechanical pencil or pen. The pencil provided (standard #2 pencil) is the only style that will fit. I'd buy it again.

"Excellent additon to measuring tools", This scribing tool is very handy for scribing arcs and marking off lines parallel to an edge. Simple to use and very accurate. The thumb screws have to be secured very tightly, or the settings may move. Not a huge deal, just be sure to give them a good hard twist.

"Poor design", The leg that holds the pin is made up of two plastic halfs and nothing holds them together. As a consiquence, the pin keeps falling out and the two halfs split apart.
I tried to contact the manufacturer, Fastcap, and complain but the URL stamped on the product is not a working website. I guess they are so proud of their products they want to hide.

"Disappointing", I've tried to use this a few times, but it's almost completely worthless. It's too bulky to use for scribing small distances or in tight areas. It's plastic, so it flexes a little bit which precludes you from getting an accurate scribe. When I scribed a countertop backsplash, it left a nice gouge in the drywall. Back to an old-fashioned compass.

"Flimsy construction", I have been impressed with other products from FastCap but this one is a loser. It fell apart the first day. I glued it back together but then experienced the loosening thumbscrew problems. I'll go back to the drugstore compass...

"Accuscribing", I recently bought this scribe and it looks like it's going to take some time to get use to. The problems I have had when using it is all the adjustments. It has three adjustment screws that take extra time to use. The old scribe tool I used had one. It is a little bulky also. It does the job but to me it seems like someone tried to invent a better mousetrap.
