You know how hard it would be to take notes in that guy's class without having a pause button. I'm always equipped with a straight edge and this guy just whips through lines like it's nothing.

That is amazing.. how does he do this? The ability to draw dotted lines on a chalkboard would be really useful.

P.S. sounds kinda like some sort of vehicle from Star Wars.

Like GeeSussFreeK said, it's just a matter of holding the chalk at the right angle and it happens automatically. I had a teacher do this back in 8th grade (dating myself, I suppose, since we still had chalk boards) and it was mind blowing at first. Then we all figured out how to do it and were constantly up at the board drawing dotted lines for no reason.

When you "pull" _______________/
you get a line.
When you "push" .........................\
it jumps in your hand.
It's technique.


Now can you write that explanation on a chalk board with dotted lines explaining the dotted lines =)
