This handy tool from MarXman marks drilling positions through fixing holes 45mm – 100mm deep and from 3-13mm in diameter. Pushing the marker into fixing holes delivers a burst of bright chalk through the hole onto the mounting surface, clearly showing where the hole needs to be drilled.

Review: A great marking tool that works incredibly well. - Sometimes a tool comes along, that just does exactly what it's supposed to. This Marxman hole marker is one. Apparently, it was originally, a Dragon's Den project. That passed me by, but it has now become an essential part of my tool box. Some reviews mention that when they tried to use it nothing happened, and they had to send it back. It is possible that they did receive a duff one, but be aware, chances are, that when you receive yours, it will be in the 'locked' position. You have to twist the end, so that the plastic rib, lines up with the notch. Only then will it fire (Photo). Operation is simple. Just line up the nozzle with your hole and push down. You will hear a small whoosh of air, and that's it. This standard model is good for holes upto 45mm deep. There is a deep hole model for deeper holes, if you need it. The mark itself is a circle of green chalk. It looks like fluorescent paint, it's that bright, but it easily wipes (washes) off of surfaces. The manufacturers say each unit is good for approx 250 holes. I can't verify that, but they certainly last a long time. I have included a short video of me using it with a metal clad back box. The holes aren't deep, but quite often these are fitted to uneven walls, and trying to mark conventionally with a pen/pencil can be extremely difficult. Originally, they were £ 10.00 each. But, now that they halved in price to £ 5.00, they represent great value, even for occasional DIY use. Overall, I can't recommend this enough. On internal, nice white walls there are occasions where I still use a Pica marker, but for all other scenarios, this is unbeatable. I hope you found this review helpful.
Review: Superb... how did I mange before I got this. - So simple but so good. I don't know how I have managed without this. This makes life so much easier. Have marked up outside lights, hanging basket hangers, etc, etc. Superb buy and so handy and easy to use. A++

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how far will it squirt the chalk into  hole ?**
A: I have done holes in 100mm timber and it worked.  They also do one that goes deeper.   Its simply brilliant kit.

**Q: Where do i get refills for this**
A: As far as I know you DONT!!! There only approx £5 anyway………

**Q: Can you wash off any excess and does it pinpoint or make a large dot**
A: It makes quite a small dot and it's a puff of chalk so it cleans off quite easily. I don't know how I managed without one before!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great piece of kit that marks drill points perfectly. Thoroughly recommended!
*by Q***D on 28 May 2025*

Awesome idea in a great tool. The Marxman pen shoots a tiny amount of bright green chalk directly at the spot where you need to drill a hole. Each cartridge has about 300 shots in it, so lasts quite a while and is excellent value for the price. The bright green spots it leaves are very easy to spot, and if you use it right, it marks with an "X". Sometimes if your drilling a hole to attach wood to a wall, it can hard to mark the spot with a pen or pencil due to the depth of the wood. Not so with this device. I've yet to encounter a point where it couldn't or didn't mark the drill point accurately. Buy it and you won't be disappointed.
