I spent a lot of time measuring and marking tubing until I came up with this method. Take the tube that needs to be marked. say 1/2"
lightly secure to work table ( tape or wood blocks ) lay a piece of 1/2" tubeing parallel and a few inches away from part to be marked. take a third piece of tubing and either coat that piece or the tube to be marked with magic marker. Drag the third piece down the two parallel pieces together, the tube being dragged along the top will hit the exact apex of the two parallel tubes for as long a line as you want to make.

That is a very good idea. Simple and easy to do. Thanks for sharing.

Variation of Ducati SS's method: Lay two same diameter tubes side by side, take a steel ruler and lay it on both tubes, drag it along the top of both tubes. The steel will leave a light scuff mark.

Forgiving is tough, being forgiven is wonderful, and God's grace really is amazing. |
