The common $2 gapping tool to me just seemed imprecise and somewhat of a guess. Then came the adjustment, which also seemed hit or miss.
But this tool appears to eliminate many of those issues.

Yes, I have it and it works great. The ground electrode is moved by turning the screw. The distance is set by putting your blade between the electrodes.
However, depending on the plugs you need to chose the blade one or two steps smaller than your desired electrode distance, because the ground electrode will rebound a litte bit.
Other than that, I see only benefits: all plugs are set identically. No tapping on the plugs, no stress on the electrodes. Clean and perfect work.
