SUGGESTED GUIDELINES

  TALLNESS TABLE - Select a tallness table.

   FOUR MARKs - Measure from floor for Units 0, 1, 2 and 3, without yet marking. No mark will be required for 4 units.

  PRECISION AT TOP PART OF EACH MARK Because exactly the top of each mark defines units, measure again to confirm, and ...

1. Pencil four dots - one for each of Units 0, 1, 2 and 3
2. Again measure from floor to a few inches left or right and pencil 4 more dots.
3. Holding a carpenter's level, or at least a ruler, draw four horizontal lines joining dots.
4. Fill a thick area beneath each line using crayon, paint, pencil, pen, or tape, etc. Thickness and length are up to you. Add no data on wall.

   DETERMINANT Which is the lowest top-of-mark above the player's head?
