What It Does

The Scale Master II professional digital plan measure helps you:

  • Dramatically Cut Take-Off Time
  • Speed Estimates
  • Improve Profit
  • Reduce Errors
  • Improve Crew Productivity

Unlike "old fashioned" scalers or rulers, the Scale Master II is a digital and multi-functional device. Yet, it's highly accurate, portable, and easy-to-use! Our newest model contains 91 architectural, engineering, map & metric blueprint scales, simpler & enhanced features, and even PC interface capability to help you estimate like a pro! It's an "all-in-one" take-off tool.

User Accuracy
Based on how accurately you roll (or start and stop). Error factor approx. 2-4%. Highly accurate for estimating.

A Total of 91 Built-In Scales
With 50 imperial (feet-inch) and 41 metric, there's a scale for almost any plan.

Small, Lightweight and Totally Portable (Fits in Your Pocket)
Even bring it with you to the field!

Perform Instant Linear, Rectangular Area & Volume Take-Offs
Use it like a pen -- just roll & measure! Align the white line on the red wheel to the starting point, and roll!

Rolls-in Distances in Either Direction
Accepts dimensions as fast as you can accurately roll them in either direction and with either hand. Measures regular & irregular linear distances, or odd shapes.

Easy-to-Read Display
Reads your measurement in feet / inches or metric.

Multiple Dimensional Units for Maximum Versatility
Select your favorite measurement units: decimal feet, feet-inches, decimal inches, yards, millimeters, meters, kilometers -- including square and cubic formats of each.

Convert Between Scales & Dimensions
If dealing with more than one scale or dimension.

Custom Scale
Eight (8) user-set custom scales. Perfect for scaling faxed or out-of-scale plans. Calibrates to any plan and then stores that scale for future use.

Calculate Rectangular Areas / Volumes (LxWxH)
Just roll & enter length of room, then width & instantly calculate square footage. Or put in Memory to accumulate total square footage.

Subtract, Constant & Counter
Lets you subtract if you roll too far. And lets you count items (e.g., studs, outlets, etc.) & accumulate in memory. Constant (+K) key allows you add or subtract a constant value to the distance measured. Great for "drops" and add-ons.

Durable and Portable for Field or Office Use

Testimonials

The Scale Master is one of the most accurate, efficient, and versatile scaling devices I have ever used.

A great tool for plan checking. The Scale Master has saved 3 times its cost in catching just one mistake in a blue print!
Mike Kovac

This is the greatest tool for estimating I've used, including some of the computerized systems I have tried. It is a superb tool for figuring irregular roads and driveways, square footage and even cubic yardage. This tool is more than a complete package with all the options necessary for any plan take-off, unlike any other device I have used, and the Scale Master is so easy to use.
