Empire Marking Tools
Empire Layout and Site Marking
Empire marking tools cover shop layout and jobsite marking. For layout there is a precision pencil compass, a compass/scriber, a scriber with magnet, a 6-1/2-inch scratch awl, a contour gauge for copying profiles, and a 4-piece pick set. For site work there are 250-foot and 500-foot twisted line reels, 600-foot by 1-inch flagging tape in lime green and pink, and 2-1/2-inch by 3-1/2-inch Glo orange flag stakes. All purpose magnets are listed too.
What to Look For
- Layout. Scribers and compasses transfer curves and fit parts.
- Profiles. Contour gauges copy shapes for trim and tile.
- Site lines. Line reels set straight runs for layout and grading.
- Visibility. Flagging tape and stakes mark utilities and hazards.
