The invention is a tool for marking the diagonal miter cut locations on the horizontal and vertical molding strips of a door or window and for spacing the strips from the edge of the jamb. The tool has parallel, spaced-apart, first and second surfaces, with means attached to the second surface for marking the miter cut locations. The tool also has parallel, spaced-apart, third and fourth surfaces, with the spacing between the third and fourth surfaces corresponding to the distance between the molding strip and the edge of the jamb. Preferably, the means are a pair of blades. In operation, the tool is positioned adjacent a jamb and a strip of door molding, and a swiping movement of the tool scores the strip to mark the miter cut location. The tool enables the precise marking and spacing of moldings relative to jambs or other pieces of molding where precise marking and spacing is required.
