A chalk line apparatus comprising a holder for powdered chalk containing a rotatable reel, a flexible line wound on said reel, an exit opening for the line at one end of the holder, and an adjustable calibrated line-tensioning device in the holder between the reel and the exit opening for the line. The line has evenly spaced short segments of one diameter between the long segments of a different diameter. When the line is snapped, the chalk-covered short segments leave evenly spaced chalk marks which are visibly distinct from those left by the long segments of the line.
