A measuring jig preferably comprising an end engaging member for engaging a mitered end of a work piece, a mechanism for retaining a distal end of a measuring device adjacent to a reference point on a work piece, and member for retaining a measuring device. The invention may be supplemented by a measuring device such as a tape measure. The end engaging member is founded upon a base member with an end face engaging surface and a rear longitudinal face engaging surface coupled thereto to define a V-shaped angular alcove. The end face engaging surface may be fixed relative to the rear longitudinal face engaging surface, or it may be pivotally coupled for selective angular adjustability. The mechanism for retaining a distal end of a measuring device may be slidably retained along an elongate end face engaging surface. There may be a plurality of spaced-apart mechanisms, each comprising a slot, for retaining a distal end of a measuring device. In certain embodiments, the end face and rear longitudinal face engaging surfaces may project symmetrically from both sides of the base member so that work pieces can be engaged on both sides and from both directions. The member for retaining a measuring device may include an upstanding retaining arm for receiving a clip of a tape measure and one or more angularly-disposed marking edges for allowing the application of a cutting line to a work piece. An elongate ridge may be disposed on the member for retaining a measuring device for maintaining a given orientation.
