Abstract

See full text

An improved chalk line and chalk line hook that eliminates the marking errors of prior art chalk line hooks is claimed and described. The improved chalk line hook comprises a gripping hook, line attachment loop rotatably attached to a surface of the gripping hook, and rotating attachment means which may be a pivot pin. The axis of rotation of the line attachment loop is disposed directly over the securing edge of the gripping hook, eliminating the offset suffered by prior art chalk line hooks. The invention may further comprise a container able to contain powdered chalk and having an aperture for the line to pass through, a rotating reel for dispensing and retrieving chalk line, and line passing through the container aperture and attached to a chalk line hook of the invention. The invention may further comprise a magnet disposed on a surface of the gripping hook.
