FastCap Long Nose Permanent Marker with Wide Chisel Point for Tool Foam Tracing - Perfect for Contractors and Technicians - Black, Bold 3mm Tip, Thin 1 mm Tip - 80553

Super handy

This is a great marker (color- silver) when marking or out-lining very dark or black objects. The long fine tip works great in outlining shapes on surfaces of all types. Thanks for asking!

As described and worked great for tracing the outline of my rifle for my Pelican case.You just have to be consistent with your tracing in how you hold the body of the marker against the rifle. I saw plenty of videos that stated to trace inside the outline. I did. However, I ended up tracing so closely that I was able to cut with the line rather than inside of it.Get one if you've got a pelican case. You'll appreciate the ease and convenience. It's a small investment for a great result.Oh, and on a final note : Many videos stated that you should use an electric knife to cut the foam. I simply used a retractable razor and was very pleased with the results.

Wanted to use these for woodworking layout..unfortunately, these are not much good. The design is nice, but the ink is substandard and dries out very quickly. If you lay them down flat then both ends are useless within a week or so. Forget about the chisel end, i got 1 use out of it. The only way to get a very small working timeframe for the small end is to store vertically w small end down. Even w that..pretty much a waste of money..

This tool fills a great gap in layout construction. There are so many times when a normal pen, pencil, or marker just can't reach the point to be marked. This tool has the reach and narrow barrel to get into those tight spots. Love it, don't know how I did without it.

Showed up with no ink in the fine tip end and the large end was dried out and unusable

I saw jimmy diresta using this pen in his shop so I bought one. It is fairly expensive for a pen but I think it is well worth the expense. The needle top allows me to trace right along the edge of something accurately. A sharply can't do that without getting wavy inaccurate lines. I use it primarily to write on metal, and it goes on like champ, dries quickly, and doesn't smear

I wanted to use this to trace an object onto a workpiece prior to cutting it out. The thickness of the item (a fancy cross that I wanted to use as a pattern to make more) made it difficult to get good results with a standard pen or pencil, especially when trying to trace the interior details. This long nosed pattern marker makes the task easier. The line produced is a bit broader than I would have liked (on the order of 1 mm or a little more), Perhaps they will come up with another model with a thinner point. For now, am experimenting with placing a sheet of Akua printing plates (also available on Amazon) on top of the cross, and using this marker to trace the cross while observing it from above, looking through the plate. Cutting out the plate results in a thin pattern for making the final product from.
