Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right marking tool for my material?

Consider the surface first. Smooth timber needs a fine, precise mark, while rough masonry or metal needs a mark that stays visible on the surface. Then think about how accurate the job needs to be and where you will be working, as this affects the size and type of tool.

How can I get the most accurate marks?

Measure twice and mark from a fixed reference edge or datum line. Keep the marking tool steady and at a consistent angle, and use a straight edge or square for longer lines. Always check the mark against your plan before you cut or drill.
