Victor Battery Powered Construction Materials Calculator, Yellow (C5000)

This calculator will allow you the "do it yourselfer " to handle any project like a seasoned contractor. I have been using this and other calculators like it ever since they came out. I remember the first one: a bit Larger and very expensive. It is an indispensable tool to do projects accurately and with as little over purchase and waste as possible. Today this calculator costs the about the same as a fast-food lunch and does more than ever. It is a really fantastic purchase, and the price is so low you will wonder why you did not get it sooner. You will get your money back in savings after the very first project estimate, and I am not kidding. Before I discovered the Construction Calculator, I used to calculate projects long hand using a simple adding machine and estimates on the number of supplies and waste expected (usually 10 %). Since using this calculator specifically made for the type of projects one does when working on homes, yards, fences, buildings etc. I have reduced my over purchase by 25% and waste by 15%. I never said I was good at math. The types of projects that this Calculator can estimate is almost limitless and will help with any project I can think of that has to do with the building or remodeling. If you get this machine, you will not be disappointed and you will be very happy you have it, using it to help friends relatives and maybe a contractor or 2. One other item of interest, this calculator uses batteries only. No solar cell. Not that important but good to know so always keep extra batteries with you.

Nice calculator

Great for figuring out my measurements for laminate flooring. I use this to figure widths and lengths installing laminate or tile flooring. Inputting measurements in inches and being able to divide or multiply in inches makes work go quicker.

Better than using a yellow construction tape of 60 yards and LOTS faster!

Super useful, especially for construction work. It makes calculations quick and way easier than doing everything by hand. Feels durable, and the case is a nice bonus. Definitely something you’ll use all the time. My only con is it doesnt have all the features as the more expensive ones but one day ill get that one too.

I have been using this construction material calculator for more than 20 years for calculating material for drapery making. It is easy to use, and instructions are clear and uncomplicated. It functions are not difficult to understand, it is accurate and its speed of operation quick. It has a long battery life. I use it for any project around the house that I need to calculate materials for. Using it has saved me from over buying materials and having to find somewhere to store it. I hope this was helpful so someone.
