A chalk line is an easy-to-use hand tool with powdered chalk housed within its case, used to draw straight lines in various applications. Once in position, this string can be pulled taut before plucked or snapped to leave an even line of chalk across whatever surface you need to mark.

A plumb bob is an essential tool that’s been in use in construction applications for thousands of years and is used for marking walls with layout marks and positioning fixtures and decorations in relation to objects or surfaces above or below.
