I saw a video for a $1 DIY Contour Gauge using BBQ skewers & cardboard! Genius

[KimCheongBRO]

I use one for brick and stone pavers to cut into stone veneer and irregular walls. Very handy, saves a lot of time transposing measurements to material.

Just starting out in my tilling career.. think I deffo need this for my kit...

[tulipsmoran]

Thanks! I went over to Amazon and picked one up.

I bought one of these quite awhile ago. Works sweet. I wish they had a longer model like a 16 inch size

[jayjohal]

How go you use this tool around the toilet 🚽 base?? Obviously the base is longer than 10 inches! Do you do it in stages??

[danielbocelli]

Wish I knew this existed before I installed my laminate floors! I have to live with the gaps now haha

[wonghowee]

Good, can join 2 units in 1, so that it can be longer for engineering use measuring contour

[patrickminard]

Have you ever done a how to video to use it underneath door trim?

[ajparker]

What wet cutter is that on what size tiles can it cut longest ways?

[jdj]

Got on in my box works great for kitchen cabinet crowns molding

[johnnovie]

Hi...Great video on this item! But!! I’d be so grateful if you could please help me with a problem I’m having with cutting glass decorative backsplash tile. Just little pieces I’m trying to score with...apologies for my language...these cheap ass, pieces of crap, that are supposed to score and cut, small pieces of glass tile for a very small project I’m doing! Have to mention store brand...MENARDS! Nothing personal to them but, it broke tile after one use! I don’t want to have to use a wet saw! Do you have any suggestions about something that works well and won’t break the bank!? Very much appreciate any advice you have to give this “poor” girl!
Many thanks,
Heidi

For the shower pan ....not that simple. It come in corner so how can you know where to position that rulleron the tile which needs to be cut

I bought the 10 inch, paid for the tool. Where is the tool? I don't know.Lost in shipping? I don't know. Received notice the tool was shipped and I can track it with the Arrive app. It says no courier update, waiting for update. Where's the tool? I don't know. I have emailed Smart Saker with the order number and tracking number, and screen shot of the Arrive shipping notice showing waiting courier update. I get an auto response email back to include my order number and tracking number. Where's the tool I purchased 17 days ago? I don't know. This is a total shit show.

You explained the blatantly obvious part of that tool and not the part that people actually need help with. What about the back side of the tile? What about the measurements required in order to get the backside to line up properly with the tile that you've laid? I'm currently putting down a simple rubber garage floor and I'm working from the center out...once I get to the edges, yeah sure....I have my contour tool, but that doesn't help me know WHERE to cut on the tile. It tells me what SHAPE to cut but NOT WHERE to cut it. And NO, this doesn't mean I need to "LEaVE iT To the ProFEssIoNALS." it just means I need to know how to do this. I do a lot of my own work around my house and I FUCKING DO IT RIGHT. You don't know a damn thing about me, so keep that bullshit to yourself.
