Tools and Hardware Reviews of FastCap Accuscribe Scribing Tool
Customer Review: Accuscribing
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently bought this scribe and it looks like it's going to take some time to get use to. The problems I have had when using it is all the adjustments. It has three adjustment screws that take extra time to use. The old scribe tool I used had one. It is a little bulky also. It does the job but to me it seems like someone tried to invent a better mousetrap.Customer Review: Disappointing
Summary: 2 Stars
I've tried to use this a few times, but it's almost completely worthless. It's too bulky to use for scribing small distances or in tight areas. It's plastic, so it flexes a little bit which precludes you from getting an accurate scribe. When I scribed a countertop backsplash, it left a nice gouge in the drywall. Back to an old-fashioned compass.Customer Review: Excellent additon to measuring tools
Summary: 5 Stars
This scribing tool is very handy for scribing arcs and marking off lines parallel to an edge. Simple to use and very accurate. The thumb screws have to be secured very tightly, or the settings may move. Not a huge deal, just be sure to give them a good hard twist.Customer Review: Flimsy construction
Summary: 2 Stars
I have been impressed with other products from FastCap but this one is a loser. It fell apart the first day. I glued it back together but then experienced the loosening thumbscrew problems. I'll go back to the drugstore compass...Customer Review: Good Product. Not the same as previous reviews
Summary: 5 Stars
Previous reviewers have complained about the quality and usability of this product. Clearly, from my perspective, the problems with the earlier versions have been addressed by the manufacturer. The scribe now has captured screws that do not turn when tightening the thumb screws. Setting the scribe is easy and secure. The flat back keeps the distance consistent. Once the adjusting screws have been tightened, the tool keeps its setting for accurate scribing. A very useful tool for anyone who needs to fit one irregular surface to another, especially when the surfaces are not flat and square.
