Burns a line!!! [Posted on 2002-07-13] I am a mason and I was working an doing a block foundation that the homeowner poured himself. It was graded off with a steel rake so the surface was not smooth by any means. I ended up breaking both my chalk lines the day prior so I went to buy replacement lines for them and I saw this "animal" on the wall. I was amazed by the rope in this. I went ahead and purchaced it and was impressed by the fact of how big the line was and it went down into the low points of the footer. There was no "snap the line back to you" going on here, One snap does it. Great product!!!
Holds a pound of chalk, but don't put it all in. [Posted on 2002-10-07] I am a roofer, so I use a lot of chalk. What I found with this chalk line is that it does indeed leave a bold thick line. If your popping a lot of lines, you don't have to real it in as often either. The one problem I found though, is that if you try to fill it up with chalk (or even go much over half way) it is very difficult to pull the line out. I broke the line one day trying to pull it out with it full of chalk. Also, it is not a quick reel, so if your using it a lot you'll be doing a lot of reeling.I hope this info helps you.
Good for parking lot striping [Posted on 2006-11-10] Chalklines like this one are good for snapping long lines. The string is heavier and thicker than a carpenter's chalkline. However, this model doesn't have as thick a line as the older model Keeson GCL-130, but it is cheaper.
