Their tape measure "story stick" AFD tool wasn't a bad idea, and is

apparently only mark on it with a mark-a-lot, which means the lines
would be too gross for fine measurements.

How about a fine tip Sharpie. One thing though, a sharpie is a lot more
permanent than a marks-a-lot. It may not come off.
