ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a device for printing an outline of an opening to be cut in wall to facilitate the installation of a GEM electrical box in the wall. The outline is substantially rectangular having a first and second set of sides. The first set of sides is shorter than the second set of sides and includes a semi-oval portion located at the middle of each side. The second set of sides have a semi-oval portion located at the end of each side. The device includes a rubberstamp configured to print the outline on the wall, and also includes a handle and a pair of levels for locating (leveling) the device prior to imprinting the outline on the wall. The rubberstamp can includes an inking means for replenishing ink to the rubberstamp. The device can include a stud finder device to assist in positioning the device adjacent a stud under the wall surface. The device can also include a spring assembly so that the rubberstamp can initially be located at a position on the wall without imprinting the outline on the wall, but will print the outline on the wall upon the application of pressure to the rubberstamp.
