[CAUT] Fwd: Plate coating for fitting pinblocks

[Edward Sambell]

I long ago settled on a mix of blue chalk powder and glycerine.The chalk is added  until the solution is not runny, and applied with a paint brush, not too liberally. It will stay wet for days, and just needs re-brushing between trials and marks beautifully. Cleanup is just a matter of wioing it off.

>Any thoughts about what coating is most effective (leaves the best mark and lasts the longest between applications) on the plate flange when fitting a pinblock. I've used carpenters blue chalk and black carpenter's crayons and they're both a mess to use and have to be reapplied frequently. There has to be something that lasts longer and is easier to apply.
