The simple truth is that some of us were built were math, and some of us weren't. If calculating how many gallons of paint you'll need makes you want to hire the job out, this little calculator will change your mind. All you have to do is measure and tell it what you want to know. It's programmed to figure out quantity needed for all kinds of materials: bricks and blocks, wallboard, gravel, lumber, paint, roof shingles, studs, tile and wallpaper. You tell it specifically what grout width you want, or how far apart your fence posts will be, and it work everything out. It even works in reverse, figuring out mind-sputtering things like, how much wall will 7 gallons of this paint cover? It handles fractions to the 1/64th inch without faltering, and It's slim, light, and less than 3-by-5-inches, so it fits neatly in your pocket. It's powered by long-life lithium batteries, and the auto-shutoff feature gives you even more battery life. And of course, it works like a regular calculator, too, so you can add up how much you saved by not hiring out that paint job.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Quick - What's 3/32 + 1/16 + 7/64 divided by 2? May 9, 2008

This little calculator can give you the fractional or decimal answer without making you recover your 5th grade arthmetic skills. It handles a wide range of woodworking and carpentry calculations. The same company makes a wide range of calculators, including more robust ones for use at job sites. This one is probably best used in a workshop or inside. It's in a light weight bright yellow plastic case that doesn't feel like it would handle a lot of abuse. But it's easy to use, the instruction manual is clear and the inside cover even has printed instructions for the most common uses. Four stars rather than 5 because of the cheesey case, but it's still a great way to reduce errors and save pencil lead.
 Great Item! Every carpenter (ESPECIALLY PART TIME) should own one! February 16, 2008

I bought this as a gift for my husband who enjoys doing projects building things for the house. Occasionally, he has to run to the store because he didn't add things correctly. This helps and will help determine from inches to feet without the additional math.

I've bought many of these - for myself and for work. I work in graphic arts. Do a lot of computations which require mixing feet, inches, meters, fractions, etc. Love it!
