Continuing my search for the perfect marking tool

Continuing my search for the perfect drawing tool I bought one of these and gave it an honest test. I got the plastic version, thought it was overpriced before I bought it, but it's a quest. The tool is really well thought out and solves many of the problems I faced with my homemade versions. Specifically the use of a magnet to hold the blade. Here my criticism. Step 1/16 vs infinite customization. The movement of the blade in the tool. (Could be better in metal versions but I might not cry) Blade bending due to the large protrusion. Modified Exacto blades are used. (yes, I know why). Maximum depth ยฝ inch. So one of my tests for "perfection" is to mark from both directions and measure deviations. My tests ranged from near perfect on MDF to 1/16"+ on hard stock. A good tool, more accurate than a pencil but not perfect. Tip: Attach masking tape before painting. Greatly improves the ability to see the line. At least in my poor eyes.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Vanish
