Saker Contour Duplication Gauge-Adjustable Lock-Gift for Men Boyfriend Husband Dad-Precisely Copy Irregular Shape-Irregular Woodworking Tracing-Must Have Tool for DIY Handyman 10 Inch+5 Inch

My hubby loves it, he uses it all the time.

I picked up the Saker contour‑gauge twin‑pack (5 in + 10 in) to box‑in an awkwardly shaped toilet pan, and it earned its keep within minutes. The teeth slide smoothly to capture curves, then the little thumb‑lock clamps everything so the profile doesn’t wiggle while you move to the workpiece. I traced the outline straight onto 18 mm ply and sent it through the jigsaw; the panel dropped in first try—no filler, no swearing. Quality feels above the budget gauges I’ve tried: the ABS pins are stiff enough that they don’t sag, yet fine enough (about 0.05 in) to pick up subtle bumps. The wider 10‑inch bar was perfect for the pan’s sweeping sides, while the 5‑inch insert squeezed behind pipework where space was tight. Depth of the pins is a hair over 2 in, so it covers most household mouldings but not a full skirting board in one pass. Minor wishes: the scale is only in centimeters, and the lock knob is right‑hand only, so a left‑corner reach‑around is a tad fiddly. Otherwise, a genuinely useful addition to the DIY kit.

bought this Saker contour gauge set (5" + 10") while re‑skinning an ugly basement stairwell, and it turned a fiddly weekend job into a one‑evening sprint. Press the pins against the trim, flip the lock, and you’ve got a dead‑steady stencil you can carry straight to the saw. The lock really is the star—once it’s clamped, those teeth don’t wiggle a hair, even after a couple of trips up and down the stairs with plywood in hand. The tension is adjustable, so you can dial it loose for delicate shapes (think crown moulding profiles) or stiff for beefier tasks like scribing around pipe flanges. A quick tweak with the little Allen screw before first use and both gauges slid smoothly without feeling sloppy. Material‑wise, it’s plain ABS plastic, but the walls are thick enough that the pins don’t flex or snap. After a dozen traces the edges are still crisp and square. The orange body is loud—in a good way; you won’t lose it in a pile of sawdust. Bottom line: If you do flooring, trim, tile, or even automotive body panels, this tool saves measuring, guessing, and cussing. Should’ve added it to the toolbox years ago.

It performs just like it says. Measures any angle. My husband thinks it's one of the best tools out there, it's extremely versatile for any projects. Every handyman should have one!

This works great. I bought a knock off of this product and I was having to move each bit manually otherwise I wouldn’t get an accurate indent of the shape. This one moved smoothly and was accurate in getting the shape. This is really helping me with my DIY jobs.
