Johnson Brass Stair Gauges (2-Pack)

Works like a charm, accurate every time

Good quality with great price

This was the first time I cut stair stringers, the gauges really made the job easier. The only reason for 4 stars is because they come off the square fairly easy.

They’re very good and work well.

great deal

the Johnson Brass Stair Gauges are perfect highest quality brass .makes simple work when cutting stair stringers .

A must have item for anyone building a deck with stairs. Used them to lay out replacement stairs for a deck remodel. Why pay big bucks (about $42 per 7 step stringer) for pre-fab stair stringers that probably won’t fit exactly anyway? For less than three bucks and the cost of a 2X12 ($18 for an 8 foot board that will make most 7 step stringers), you can outfit any carpenter’s square with these gauges that make measuring and cutting easy and practically fool proof. Sure, it takes a little planning to have the rise and run turn out perfectly, but that’s something you would never be able to achieve with pre-fab stringers and it’s really no more work to build stringers that fit right than it is to modify off-the-shelf stringers that will need to be modified anyway.

Ok, I like the brass. Time will tell.

Okay , but thumb screws have coarse loose threading, gages come loose on framing square easily

Perfect, inexpensive aid to marking up stair stringers quickly and accurately for each step and riser.
