Some might remember i was on the hunt for a self levelling laser level.

Well i ended up with the Dewalt DW087K... What a quality piece of kit.( Big thanks to Roy )

I will be trying it out next week as i have a large shop ( walls & floors into 3 rooms) to set out.

This will make it a lot easier...

Review to follow and if i recall correct i think Trade tiler is to stock these soon.

Great choice Dave

I've not long had mine and used it for the first time last week - pure belter:hurray:screwed to the wall it can swing a line within millimetres of 360degrees:hurray:and you can check for plumb almost anywhere on the same swing as well:hurray:

I have got the tripod and i am getting the laser pole as well... so floor to ceiling levelling..

Should have had one of these years ago..:drool5:

The tripod works nicely but i would advise getting the dewalt pole as well that is made for it around £50-60 I think. Many poles will work with it also but the dewalt one has the magnetic plate that fits the laser

Dave i have been using my DW087 for ages now and love it. I dont use it for standard bathrooms, mainly large jobs.
Also great when i go to see a floor , just sit the Dewalt on a flat surface ( worktop/window cill) and use a staff to find low /high spots in the floor in front of the clients eyes.....i have never had a client argue
Always keep it in the box and there is room for spare batteries too.
The magnetic holder is great too when there is an available metal object handy...fridges freezers ovens etc.

Oh and it matches the DW24000 :smilewinkgrin:

the magnet on the dw087k is well strong enough to stick to angle beads through plaster..try it, just put your hands underneath for the first time tho just to make double sure :smilewinkgrin:
