Yes, put chalk in the reel. The amount isn't written in stone but you
might as well put in as much as you can but not so much as to make it
difficult to reel/unreel the string. You can always add more.

Thanks so much for the help. It seemed the thing to go, but when you
aren't sure... Anyway, works perfectly now. Guess that means we have to
get to work (just hauling the shingle bundles a hundred yards from the
car and then up to the roof about did me in already this morning,
though).

Thanks again!

Hate to smack a tired woman, BUT,

You really don't need a chalk line if you follow the lines of the old
shingles.
