The doty Magnetic Stud Finder makes finding wall studs a breeze, using a Powerful Magnet. It works like magic. Simply slide the flat surface of the doty stud finder slowly over a wall in a circular or “S” motion until you feel a strong pull on a nail or screw head. Once the doty stud finder is directly over a screw or nail, let it go and it will stick to the wall. No batteries, no calibration, no lights, no hassle!!
