Does anyone have a brand of dry erase markers they use which don't stink?   

Ds enjoys working with them but the smell gets to me and then worry sets him about him breathing their fumes. They say non toxic but still concern me.

Thanks!

I've been wondering if there are fine point dry erase markers. We have the fat and regular tips. Anyone?

Love,

I bought dry-erase markers today at Office Depot. There are sooo many varieties it boggles the mind! It seems most brands do promise low-odor. I have bought multi-color packs of Expo Low-Odor Dry-Erase Markers in the past and they were relatively fume-free. I have also seen them at Target.

Angie, I also like a really fine point, and in my experience, it's hard to find. Unfortunately, the "fine-point" markers I bought today turned out to be much more of a *medium* point!

What I have used in the past are Vis-a-Vis Fine-Point Wet-Erase Markers. They are meant for overhead projectors, and as the name implies, you have to "wet erase" their markings ... but I like the point for writing little details on my fridge calendar as well as for embellishing our (laminated) world map. The odor is negligible.

Hope that helps!

Thanks, Dawn! We will head out to the supply store next week. It is not on my daily route so I never think about Office Max or Office Depot.

I just don't want to intoxicate ds on fumes while he is trying to be creative!!

Oh, I'm always glad to talk office supplies ~ I'm a bit of a junkie ...
