Customer Review: Excellent product
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent product. I used it to space and fasten composite deck planks. The two functions the device performs:
1. As a jig for locating nail holes. Since I chose traditional screws, the gauge, when aligned above a joist, allowed for me to punch the hole locations in two adjacent planks. It also worked to properly align fasteners on butt-joined decking. I used a 2x1/4" screws as centerpunches - and the job flew by.
2. To space the deckboards. The gauge has a side for 3/16" spacing, and if you flip it over, the gauge is 1/8" thick. I found having both thicknesses handy to ensure that my deckboards were running parallel to the house. If after a few boards, one side was creeping out of parallel, I simply used the thicker spacing to bring the boards in line with the house.
With two people and two gauges - any decking job will fly by.
