Sorry no photos - it was something I saw used on a shed-construction video I watched a few years ago. The thing looked like several rulers joined together - adjustable angles and possibly able to slide as well, like 2 connected diamonds. They used it to copy/reverse the angles needed for the roof supports and the ends of the posts that held them up. Like a sliding bevel on cocaine...

Can someone name this gadget for me? It looked a useful piece of kit!
 
Bora Miterix ?

First one maybe, second one no. I think it was more like 2 crosses, or 2 diamonds joined at the ends to there was a cross in the middle. But maybe I'm just imagining extra parts. I don't think it had actual angles marked on it.
Am I going to have to watch hundreds of shed builds until I find the right one?

Both things look very useful anyway!
