Using Marking Tools

We at FRC use many different types of marking tools which include: - Pencils: Standard graphite pencils are used for marking on paper or wood surfaces due to their easily erasable marks.

  • Markers: Permanent markers or whiteboard markers are commonly used for labeling, sign-making, or writing on various surfaces.

  • Scribes: Scribes or scratch awls create fine lines on materials like metal, wood, or leather, often used in woodworking and metalworking.

  • Center Punch: A center punch is used to create a small indentation as a starting point for drilling or marking on metal surfaces.
