Watched an american show called 'this old house' and there was a joiner who had a small metal device that fitted onto his pencil that you basically adjusted to whatever height and it was used to scribe timber etc. (sorry if my description isnt all that) Just curious if anybody knows what I mean and if so where can I purchase on.

I know exactly what you mean. I usually fumble about with a pair of compasses or dividers. There are some proper ones though. A couple of them here.........
