Eleon Stair Tread Template Tool - Extra Large, Aluminum Alloy Stair Tread Jig for Accurately Measuring Angle, Length and Depth

This Eleon Stair Tread Template Tool, is definitely a well made professional tool. It is made of an aluminum alloy and has clear markings for lengths and angles. The nice case that it comes in, should make it last for years. While it is designed as a “Stair Tread Jig” it can be used for many other purposes. Other reviewers have already focused on the great job that it does for stair treads. I will go a little further toward other uses. Anyone performing a task that requires precise inside measurements in a tight space, is familiar with the frustration of trying to get it correct. A curled up tape measure, just won't get it. For measuring the inside dimensions of a drawer, or shelf, to cut shelf liner, or actually building a drawer or shelf, this thing is fantastic. Just expand it to the desired edge width, tighten the setting knobs, and you have 2 perfectly aligned straight edges to draw your pencil marks. It is also good for transferring measurements. For Example: One may have a rectangular board, or even one with odd angles. When another board needs to be cut to the same exact dimensions, this jig will do the job. Adjust the jig to line up to the edges of the original board, then easily transfer the measurements to the new board. Another handy feature of this jig are the many parts. The various components can be used for strait edges, angle finders, protractors, drawing tools, etc. One does not have to be building stairs, to get a lot of use from this tool. After using it and/or the many components that come in the case, you will wonder how you got by without it. I hope this is helpful.
