BalusterPro is a unique and handy tool designed for carpenters and woodworkers, but useful for do-it-yourselfers and homeowners alike. BalusterPro makes the chore of calculating spacing of handrail balusters a quick and elementary task. It can also be used for any job requiring equal spacing between boards or slats. Use for picket fences, bench/chair backs,decking or column flutes.

To use, enter the run length and baluster width and then slide the 'Balusters Needed' slider until 'Spacing Between Balusters' reaches a desired value (such as meeting code requirements). The number of balusters needed is displayed above the slider.

Incredible app and a 'must have' for carpenters. Very important note for some Andriods! : you must go to the 'recent apps' menu (often bottom left corner button), find this app, and long press it to bring up the preference menu where you can change many of the parameters (like max rail run etc), it did not automatically present itself on my phone automatically just by opening the app as usual.
