Hi Mike,
As far as I know Sharpies, grease pencils and other colored pencils would be ok.
I don't know what the Sharpie uses to make it black. Hopefully not carbon.
Unfortunately, the Sharpie and other felt pens make rather wide lines that make
it
hard to do close tolerance work.
I use regular old wax based red pencils. or fine tipped felt pens.
Maybe Eric, N7CL can find out what from his ex - A&P colleague what the
"approved"
marking materials are?
73, Kurt
