    Begin by establishing a perfectly level line around the entire room. Use a Leica laser level, set to project a horizontal line at 39 1/4 inches from the floor. Once the laser line is established, hold a straight edge at the laser line and use a pencil to trace a continuous reference line all the way around the room. This line will serve as the guide for the top edge of the wainscoting's chair rail.
