A device is provided that measures the variance in ovality, for example, in a pipe, in comparison with a circle. The device will measure, for example, a number of distance points around the outside diameter of a pipe using, in one embodiment, laser distance measuring technology, and optionally using a combination of wireless data transfer including Bluetooth and CAD technology, a series of data points can be generated and plotted. It will then be determined which data points match a circle template, and which do not, with the difference in ovality then being calculated. The device can also measure, through distance measurements, the depth of pits on the exterior surface of a pipe.
