Quick Draw stores and dispenses up to 8 pieces of chalk as needed with the push of a button (fig.4) To load, simply press the button while pointing stick upwards and load as shown (fig.5). (In the freehand drawing mode, extensions can be added to lengthen the reach from 4 inches to 8 foot). Contractors can use Quick Draw to help clients visualize borders and designs, as well as mark problem areas prior to acid stain work. Artists can also use Quick Draw to create large and highly detailed artwork from a comfortable standing position (fig. 6) For detailed drawing, the chalk holder can be removed (fig. 7) and used alone (fig. 8) Just be sure to run the set screw all the way in to secure the chalk.

TIP: When designs are created in this way with chalk, lightly spray with hair spray to hold the line. Next, it can be freehand scored with an angle grinder using a crack chaser or turbo diamond blade.
