I picked up my Straight Mate's this week so I've only been using it to put my laser level to height but that alone has been worth every cent!!
Keen to use it for everything else.

Got the lads on my site to test out the new Straight Mates and it's already saved us a days work on setting up a huge ceiling frame. New essential on my sites from now on!! Love it.

Used the Straight Mate for battening a large ceiling frame ready for timber lining. Completed it in less than half the time and so easy to use. Excited to use it for a whole lot of other tasks.

Have only had my Straight Mates for a few days and have already used them to build a subfloor and to put up some trusses. Love being able to put up trusses by myself without doing the boots first!! Actually easier than having a 2nd person.

I've been using the Straight Mates for so many different things. Subfloors, ceiling frames and even just attaching the laser level to.
And also a very handy string line attachment.
Love it

ABOUT STRAIGHT MATE

MEET FOUNDER LUKE
MARSHALL

Carpenter, Innovator, Founder.


Luke’s a chippy. He’s been on the tools for over a decade, building homes from the ground up across the Mornington Peninsula.


He built the first Straight Mate because he was sick of waiting for a second pair of hands to hold a ceiling frame.


His mates wanted one. So he made them too. Now it’s a full range of tools, designed on site, tested on site, and backed by the bloke who started it - Luke still answers his own emails.
