Contour Gauge 10-Inch, Gift Packaging

Coping an odd trim profile or scribing around a heating pipe usually eats scrap wood before you get it right. We build this gauge with rows of plastic teeth that slide against the molding, lock tight with a side lever, and hold the pattern while you walk over to the bench.

What this one is built to do

Clamping the pattern

The side lever binds the teeth so they do not shift when you lift the frame away from the wall. You can adjust the tension screw if the pins feel too loose after repeated scribing.

Tracing odd shapes

The thin plastic teeth push around door casings, stair risers, copper pipes, and metal fenders. You get the real shape of the obstruction instead of guessing with a tape measure.

Tough plastic pins

We use molded teeth that will not rust when sitting in a damp basement or rolling around in an unheated garage box. The body stays light enough to hold flat against a ceiling molding with one hand.

What you need

The gauge comes in its gift box ready for the bench. You still need your own sharp pencil or fine marker to run along the teeth and lay the cut line onto your stock.
