Editorial Reviews and Product Descriptions

Amazon.com Product Review

The Accuscribe from FastCap scribes cabinet trim, architectural moldings, countertops, tile and more for cleaner cuts and more creative freedom on a wide variety of projects. The Accuscribe maintains consistent scribe offset and stays parallel to surfaces as you mark out the pattern or cut-- a great feature for installing splash guards, cutting tile, and designing floors. The device's adjustable grip locks standard-size pencils tightly in place. The AccuScribe is made of heavy-duty, indestructible polymer for years of reliable use. The unit's articulating pencil head increases flexibility for scribing over a wide variety of materials and textures. A removable compass point makes it easy to scribe circles and circular patterns. A handy storage clip for the compass point ensures optimal safety and longer compass life. The AccuScribe's non-rocking bottom keeps the unit flat against the surface or wall for flush contact with the pencil tip. The tool collapses to a compact size to take up less room in the toolbox. The Accuscribe measures 5-3/4 by 4-13/16 inches when fully extended (length by height). --Brian D. Olson

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

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.
Great---mostly. - Reviewed on 2008-04-05

Great idea and well built. I first saw it in a wooden boat magazine and thought it looked good. As a wood worker, drawing circles is a common problem. I've used it a couple times and have these observations:
1. It holds it's position and measurement quite well.
2. It is constructed of good materials.
3. The pin pulls back for safe stage, but doesn't stay in the extended position without the help of a little electrical tape.
4. I think it would be nice if the pin side would also swivel to allow larger circles.
Would I recommend it? Yes, but the builder could improve their design a bit.

I have been pleased with the workmanship and functionality of my "scribe" which I've used mainly as a compass. I like the fact that the device locks in whatever position I want. There are a number of features that I haven't explored. There is a built-in sharpener, and I figure if I need to do a really large circle I can just put in a long pencil instead of the stub that it comes with.

I keep it handy in my shop. A good value.
