I will shortly be cutting holes in a kitchen worktop to house the sink
and hob.

What is best to use to mark the shape to be cut?

I tried pencil, but it does not show up very well, and obvioulsy
cutting the hole correctly is critical.

A chinagraph pencil.

HTH -


We used a cd marker pen (obviously you'd want to make sure it'd come
off afterwards)


Doesn't even matter if it doesn't come off, as the sink/hob will overlap
the hole edge by, say, 10mm - so any cut line will easily be hidden.
