New levels

[Bill]

Due to my recent moment of stupidity I'm in need of some new levels I've just ordered a set of stabila ones 600 1200 1800 for £80 but ill need another set who's uses what ?

Try this for value ........ linky

Stabila 196-2. Got a 60cm,100cm. Cracking levels in my opinion. Robust and I find the non slip red end caps quite useful. Stops the level slipping down the wall when drawing lines around the room.

@smudger85 have you not got a self levelling laser?

No to be honest. The guy I'm learning from doesn't use one.
Am I stuck in the dark ages drawing lines around the room then?
I have mentioned using a laser level but he tells me it's to much messing about with tripods etc.

Your mentor should take my avatar, infact I'm gonna change it after reading that 😉

If you can afford it buy one of these, this is the dogs dangles
DEWALT DCE089 GREEN 360 CROSS LINE LASER WITH 10.8V 2.0AH BATTERY - http://www.toucantools.co.uk/dewalt_dce089_green_360_cross_line_laser_with_10_8v_2_0ah_battery.html?source=googlebase&kw=pla-223268308838&fl=1000&ci=55752835838&network=pla&gclid=CjwKEAjw7ZHABRCTr_DV4_ejvgQSJACr-Ycw2En8MD-h8PJOLphdWICQEfr8ZIYVDXHDtJyYcHa0cBoCVpzw_wcB

If thats too steep then even get one of these
DEWALT DW088K - https://www.howetools.co.uk/dewalt-dw088k-disposable-battery-cross-line-laser?utm_source=google_shopping&gclid=CjwKEAjw7ZHABRCTr_DV4_ejvgQSJACr-Ycwz5pVtt8NPSX2-mSZ0Atns9p3_NTqMQNOqY7iSmcZMBoC9kHw_wcB

Either of these will change your working life forever and neither need a tripod. There's magnets to stick to plasters beads etc or a simple nail in the wall will allow the adjustable bracket to give you an anchor.


I cant imagine going to work without one now 🙂

I bought the first laserperhaps in 1989/90.
metric brand, was only a spirit level with a laser spot. It was not self-leveling, I was still, sand and cement floors. I was tired of levels with water hose. every time I levels, was an aide that he was not able ... (you had to be in 2, to make levels with water hose).
This type of photo. 🙁

Yeah I've got the 360 dewalt green beam one but I still like having a level to check horizontal and vertical and flatness as I work
