    Magnetic End for a chalk line

    Hi, I was looking for some feedback on my magnetic chalk line end.

    As a commercial construction worker, I work with a lot of metal studs. I thought a magnetized end for a chalk line would help hold the chalk line in place on metal surfaces. I also put a hole in the middle for easy attachment to none metal surfaces.

    Great first post. We love simple tool modifications, especially if they involve clever use of magnets.

    Hi Dusty,

    Welcome!

    Great idea!

    Have you made any other homemade tools to help with your construction work?
