You can find studs by lightly tapping on the wall anyway in most cases with a hammer. Also, some studs are places normally at a certain amount of feet in distance to each other.

That would be a great find, someone inventing a device to detect defects in a guy's personality that you may not like. Well, that eharmoney.com commercial gives everyone a questionnaire to fill out as well as I'm sure the other dating services do, but people will lie on them to make themselves look good just like they do in person. There is no way of getting around it.

Dating and marriage is always hit or miss, because people can change during a marriage or relationship and then things can go kaput!!!

Hammer - In ancient times a hammer was used to inflict pain on one's enemies.
Modern hammers are used to inflict pain on oneself.

Pliers - A device used to extend your reach the necessary few inches when
you drop a one-of-a-kind wallscrew down behind the new wall it took you two
weeks to install.

Multi-Pliers - Contain a handy assortment of sharp and dangerous tools.
Best left in its leather sheath and worn on a homeowners belt to increase
testosterone levels.

Electronic Stud Finder - An annoying device that never goes off when you
point it at yourself.

Halogen Light - A worklight that lights up your backyard with the
incandescence of a football stadium, causing you to cast a heavy shadow over
the area you're working on so that you need to use a flashlight anyway.

Cordless Drill - A device that lessens your chance of electrocution 90% over
a standard plug-in tool.

Cordless Telephone - The handyman's 911.

Chain saw - Allows you to cut your way out of the shed that you accidentally
built completely around yourself.

Vise Grips - A pair of helping hands that doesn't critique the job you're
doing or offer advice.

My daughters are really good at finding the duds. Most of them think they are studs.

Lipstick, a man will marry a woman thinking that she will never change..... and she does, while a woman will marry a man thinking that he will/can change..... and he never does.
