Works well
Using it for marking out big round doors for my Camping Yurts. I would have given this 6 out of 5 :-) if there was a handy pencil lead and pin holder built into the housing so everything is kept together rather than perhaps loosing these little part as it must be stored separately. It's very good though.

Handy Device
I used this to mark off the placement of flourescent lights on my shop ceiling. I've tried many ways to do this by myself. This was the best so far. I own many different compass type tools and this one is a keeper.

Easy to use and saves a lot of time.
I use it to layout circular table tops, it saves time and money, I don't waste material by having to cut excess wood.
