Permanent marker is a little too conspicuous, and often a little fat.
I'm considering scoring the wood with a razor to serve as a marker.

Any tips for easily making marks on wet, pressure-treated lumber?


I'm no expert but dull nail would probably work better than razor and
be easier to see.


Chalk pencils or charcoal pencils. Either one can be bought at a craft
store.
