Awesome Chalk Box!
Absolutely love this chalk box and would highly recommend it. It has an extremely durable braided line that makes crisp, clean chalk lines. The box itself is aluminum with a rubber grip/gasket. It is way better quality than anything that I've seen DeWalt or Irwin put out, that's for sure. I have a good feeling that this box will last me years.. I usually have to buy a new Irwin Speed Line every 5-6 months, and that's if I'm lucky that it lasts that long. The one and only thing that I do not like about this box is the hook. It's not the design, it's the material that it is made of. Like the box, the hook is also made of aluminum only a lot thinner, and It's not hard to bend the hook out of place. Fortunately though, you can use any hook you want, just swap it with something more durable, it'll work just the same. All in all, I give this box 9.5/10.

One of the best tools in my toolbox.
It's like those other things... better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it. I use the hell out of this, snapping lines left and right. For anyone who had the need for a chalk line tool, this one is the best. I've used others and they simply do not stand up to the riggers of the building trades. Recommend buying it, even if you use it only a few times a year. It's quality made.

Super thin string
Great on new wood especially. The string is very thin and is great for precision use. String in thinner than most so it won't hold as much chalk while popping a line. Not suitable for heavy use on rugged surfaces or dirty environments.

Fast recoil, bold thick lines, get the bright pink chalk it is the easiest to see
Got this one for my dad who is a residential contractor, mainly for doing layout wood, drywall, wood/metal siding panels, etc. He says "It's the best chalking I've ever owned" which says something since he's been using them for 35 years or so, mainly due to the fast-rewind of the snaplinr and the durable thick string which leaves a bold & easy to see mark in outdoor daylight or indoor/garage/dimmer lit conditions especially since I ordered the fluorescent bright pink colored chalk to fill it with. Makes me think I should've got this one for myself! Though I do like the Tajima model I bought for doing my layout as a sheet-metal worker, which is the Chalkrite 2 & leaves a very thin line that works well for architectural sheet metal. I got blue chalk with mime, which admittedly turns out to be more difficult to see in dimmer lighting. Both are great though.

Superior durability
So far these are the way to go. The other fully plastic tajima chalk lines will break down faster than these. These metal ones have superior durability.

Le meilleur cordeau que j'ai pu utiliser au boulot, et de loin : incroyablement fluide, rapide à rembobiner, sensation de solidité frappante en main, qualité de la corde exceptionnelle (Tajima est vraiment un cran au dessus des autres). Bouton de débrayage, boitier alu, renforts caoutchouc, crochet large et robuste, changement de corde rapide et simple... Tant de bons points qui font la différence. J'ai vraiment trouvé mon cordeau ultime avec ce Dura. À voir la tenue dans le temps, mais j'ai dans l'idée qu'elle sera bonne. Je l'utilise un peu partout mais principalement en couverture, du coup j'en ai acheté un deuxième pour les coupler afin de claquer les lignes : une personne avec un cordex de chaque côté et plus besoin de se déplacer d'un bout à l'autre du toit. Quand la ligne commence à ne plus se voir il suffit de rembobiner et on continue à claquer. Pour le couplage les 2 crochets s'emboitent facilement comme des cuillères (69) et sont sécurisés par un morceau de scotch le temps du traçage... Même finalité qu'un cordeau double sauf qu'ici vous avez 2 cordeaux de très haute qualité avec une corde de 1mm d'épaisseur : c'est plus précis qu'un cordeau double basique, et bien moins fragile. Mais surtout une fois que le traçage est fini il suffit de les désaccoupler pour retrouver 2 bons cordeaux fonctionnels :)

Top. Angfangs habe ich gedacht, die Handkurbel würde klemmen - nein nein, das war die Übersetzung für schnelleres einwickeln. Farbe habe ich blaue wetterfeste genommen und finde ich super in kombination. Stoßfest und liegt toll in der Hand. Haken vorne tut was er soll. Habe bisschen über 20m lange Linie auf einmal markiert. Passt für mich.

Wow, this is the single best chaulk line i've ever used. So comfortable in the hand. The line is strong. It's thin but when you snap it, it leaves a really good line. A ton of chaulk doesnt come flying out when extending the line. It Winds fast. Super heavy feeling but that is quality its metal. Also tajima has the best metal hook for the end of the line.
