I have been using a marxman for the last year or so for a range of outdoor fittings which seem to have meaningless deep mounting holes that are a pain to get right even with a marxman, the Tracer was perfect for marking out and having the long barrel meat the holes were cantered every time. Brilliant idea having a sharpener built into the holder, it is one of the best simple ideas for a long while with replacement refills as well to keep down the cost, excellent!
