Re: Accurate marks on any material

I like to use soapstone for marking steel i-beam and stone.

Re: Where do you build cabinets?

I like to build my built-ins at home in my shop. Not because The results are nacessarily better (I don't have any stationary equipment), but because I can work my own pace. My wife likes that I can run inside for five minutes to help with our two young children, and I like that I can get away after dinner to work a little. I can even work on the weekends for a few hours while my kids nap without feeling guilty for not being home. Because I work mostly alone I can do that, but that obviously wouldn't work for a larger company.
