Kids' chalk works for movable lines although when you've got a final
layout you might find using a carpenters' crayon good so lines don't
get smudged so easily and can be told from preliminary layouts
unequivocally.
Any lumberyard or decent hardware store should have a good selection of
colors of both marking crayons and chalks as well. Some of the kiddie
chalks are much softer as they're intended for drawing pictures and
sketching rather than writing or lines (but they'll still work just may
be a little more messy).

Also once you have the lines where you want.Take some clear laquar (sp)
spray paint or hairspray and go over them. Keep's them from bein smudge
Work's great on chalk lines also.

ps check crayons marks to see if sprays don't cause problems.
