To snap LONG chalk lines accurately when chalking your floor follow these steps:
- Attach the chalk line at the starting point of the line. Drive a temporary nail at this point and wind the string around the nail or have a helper hold the end of the line. - Now pull the string loaded with chalk out of the chalk reel and go to the mark on the opposite end of the floor. - Secure the chalk line at the end point of the line or have a helper to hold the line in place and tighten while you snap the chalk line. - Holding the midpoint down, snap one side, then the other side. This will give you a more accurate snap.
