In an earlier post we offered a very cool contraption called a Point 2 Point Layout tool to any reader willing to test it in the drapery workroom and report back. Annie Davis answered the call, and here is her report….
I was so excited to get to use my Point to Point today! I was making a cornice that needed nailheads across a banding on the bottom edge. The designer had specified that she wanted the nailheads to be 2” apart, so I just set the Point-to-Point, found the center of the cornice, then pinned at every “point”. It was the easiest nail head job I’ve ever done!
The other nice thing – I actually have 4 cornices, all different sizes, to do (same design). So I just left the Point to Point set at the right increments and the figuring is already done for the others!
Thanks so much for letting me be a part of this experiment!

Great product and also a great project with perfect spacing – yay, Annie and Helser Brothers!
Love that tool and Annie what a beautiful cornice!!!! I want to see pictures after it is installed!
OK, this would be AWESOME for grommet spacing.
