Needed it for a complicated match of baseboard to column molding.

This appears to be a huge improvement over the compasses I've been using. It has all the right adjustments for most situations, is compact and will survive in my toolbox.

This tool has a lot of flexibility. I can now more easily scribe a cabinet face frame to a wall without messing around finding and using an appropriate spacer to hold a pencil out the right distance. Also, no more shedding paint off the pencil onto the wall paint.

Good product
A quality tool, accurate, and easy to use. The built in sharpener is a nice touch, and the removable/retractable compass point is very handy when you don't want to score the material you're scribing to. This is much better than the 90+ year old compass I've been using!

Our secret weapon
We do a lot of work on historic buildings that have stone. We use these scribes constantly. They allow " one time" fits. They are great, just bought 3 more.

I needed to scribe a piece of Sheetrock to cut it to but up against an uneven wall. It worked well and was not very expensive.

Pro Scribe
Has been the best scribe I have used in the field. It allows me to get perfect scribe due to the design of having the flat surface to lay against not only floor but walls and ceilings which helps to maintain stabile base to get accurate line to use to trim what ever piece you are working on.

Better mousetrap
Definitely an improvement over the "General" scribe. The problem is that I use the "Ticonderoga" pencils and they don't work in this device. it comes with a golf pencil which is a thicker pencil. the Dixon pencils won't tighten up even with the supplied bushing.

Decent but needs improvement.
I have used these for a while now and find them useful but they left some features and details on the table. For one they skip easily. Two the pencil is a pain to take out or adjust. Three the needle isn't flush with the bottom so you must keep this in mind when setting your distance. Look high quality but they aren't. Step it up and tradesman will be happy to repurchase.

loose
the thumb screws that tightens on the pencil and angles do not tighten enough to hold in place, they move with very little pressure unless tightened with plier.

Frustrating
Bought for the versatility but found it very frustrating to use. For the price I expected decent quality but this thing is very cheaply made. Among other things the knobs simply do not keep the scribe locked in position. After wasting one 9ft piece of Maple it nearly went in the garbage. I ended up making my own out of wood scraps and a mechanical pencil and piece number 2 turned out great.
