About this app

Meet Maker Calc: The Tape Measure Companion.

A measurement calculator for real-time fraction math on those tricky equations you need to perform while working on projects. Instead of using a normal calculator and suffering while you are constantly converting from decimals to the fractions on your tape measure, Maker Calc allows you to quickly input measurement-based fractions to calculate your results in real time as you type. Additionally, conversions to metric, feet and inches, and others are generated upon typing as well.
One of the most powerful features is the ability to see rounding options based on your selected rounding precision. If your result falls between two measurements on the calculator, then below the screen, you will see the nearest fractions and be able to select the best one for your application. This empowers you as the builder to decide how precise you would like your results to be.

About:
My name is Jake Hasler. I’m a hobbyist woodworker, leatherworker, and Maker of many things. I haven’t been able to find a great measurement calculator that I love, so I decided to build my own.

My goal with Maker Calc is to put a tool in your hands that you can trust and that you enjoy using. I’ve put my heart and soul into this app I hope you love it as much as I do. Thanks for being here.

Ratings and reviews

This app is great. It has everything I was looking for in a calculator for converting between decimals and fractions in the woodshop. Sadly as good as it is; it's ridiculous you have to pay a subscription to use it. If I could just buy this app instead of paying a monthly subscription it would be 5 stars but instead I've uninstalled.

Saw this app advertised in Woodcraft magazine. Figured I'd give it a whirl. Took me one try to upgrade to the pro version. I don't mind paying for something that I feel is worth it. I don't like the maths but I like the woodworking. This saves me a heap of time and is therefore well worth it to me. Glad I found it. The live conversions are wonderful for setting up machines with DROs. Well done folks, well done.

excellent app for making quick calculations. kept me going while building a garage for my wife's grandfather. The UI took a second to understand, but once I got it everything was smooth sailing.

What’s new

You can now resize the Conversion Zone to expand the text size! Also, the display is now horizontally scrollable when your results exceed the width.

As always, reach out if you have feedback! Thanks!
