Editor's Review: New Chalklines for an Age-Old Job

by Larry Haun review date: October 1, 2005

This chalkline feels good in the hand. Although larger than some other models, the Proline's cast-aluminum box and handle are well-built and rugged. The chalk is held in the box with a small plastic cap, but a separate 3-1/2-in. bottle also can be attached to the box for snapping more lines with fewer refills. The box has 100 ft. of 1-mil braided poly-cotton line that is six times stronger than the standard cotton found in many cheaper boxes.
