I am about to led a short camp using the Scribbler. I got to thinking about using a different pen·instead of·a permanent Sharpie for the line tracing. Anyone with experience using different pens?

I can just see the Scibbler running will across the floor leaving a permanent line!

    Prevention is better than the cure. Can't help with the prevention bit. Permanent Marker ink can normally be removed using Acetone (nail polish remover).

    Try to find a "dry erase" marker that size, it just wipes off with a cloth.

    If you can get to it soon enough, WD-40 will remove permanent Sharpie.... depending on the floor type (linoleum, vinyl, etc.), a "thin" version dry erase pen (mentioned above) or overhead projector pen should work.
