Easter eggs!I like the smell of Dykem... It brings back memories of applying dope to model airplanes when I was a kid, and when I did control line precision aerobatics in my 30s.

Blue women usually have more.....I'm hoping there is truth to what I heard about blue markers having more ink
I still use Dykem. I prefer it myself. When you have 72 year old eyes and wear Tri-Focal there is never enough light.Nope you are not alone although I don't use them for that purpose, not at home anyway. At work I use a Sharpie cause ai have no other choice. Many YT machinists have been doing that for a long time & is where I first seen it. Keith Fenner calls it Sharp-em (sounds like sharp-um when he says it).
I still use & prefer Dykem at home. I tried the Sharpie thing once. I forgot what I using but whatever cutting fluid it was dissolved the Sharpie instantly & the Sharpie ink flung all over my lathe bed which is white. I was not happy at the time that it stained it.
Link to 24, I only see 12@ 30 something...
Me too. But I was into hand-launch gliders and free-flight. Got dizzy & sick doing control line. I recently bought some fluorescent paint to put on my arrows for locating in the dark. It has that distinctive "dope" aroma.I like the smell of Dykem...

Whiteboard markers are OK for making notes on your vise, but wipe off too easily for layout work.Brah, not redneck at all.
When I first saw this (Blondie?) I was sold, but the damn things were $9 on A-zon.
We got a box in at work for our whiteboards and I got one got my box and its a godsend.
