    Batons, levels, trackers

    hello lovely people, I currently use spirit levels with holes drilled in either end to secure to the wall to start my tiles from. However this is crap if I’ve tanked the area as I’m compromising the tanking. Same with timber batons. What are your views on the adjustable tile trackers? Vitrex...

    Spirit levels

    While I have been in France for the last couple of weeks, I notice many of the local builders using a 40cm sized torpedo level. I used to have one many years ago but it got nicked and I haven't seen any for sale anywhere. The levels were great when fixing tiles into sand and cement as they...

    Stabila telescopic level

    So bombarded with the usual tool companies emails, but one thing caught my eye, the stabila telescopic spirt level. Are these a new thing are have they been about a while, because I ain't. Looks right up my street, but wonder if they are sturdy enough. Sizes range from 63cm-105cm and an 80cm-127cm.
