Tools I Use

The gear behind Linepoint's drawings, takeoffs and site measurements. These are the kinds of tools I use or recommend for drafting, estimating and electrical work.

Site measuring

Laser distance measure — fast, accurate room and site dimensions for as-builts.
Hard carrying case for a laser measure — keeps the laser protected in the truck and on site.
25 ft tape measure — for the details a laser can't reach.
Architect scale ruler — reading paper plans to scale.

Electrical

Non-contact voltage tester — a quick safety check before any field verification.
Digital multimeter — confirming voltages on existing panels and circuits.
Clamp meter — measuring actual load for service-upgrade and EV charger calcs.

Drafting & estimating desk

27" 4K monitor — a second screen makes CAD and Bluebeam takeoffs much faster.
Ergonomic mouse — for long AutoCAD sessions.
NEC 2023 code book — the reference behind every load calc and panel schedule.
