Tool kits, then & now.

Can see how may help on a floor.
But it's nothing my 3m straight edge can't do.
As for saving time...... I gave up rushing year ago...

Saving time means you don't have to rush .

Laser level is probably one of best pieces of kit I have ever purchased . The amount of time it saves when setting out bathroom walls is loads . Also when pricing up floor work it is very easy to see how much the floor drops so you can calculate how much levelling comp you need . Also on some floors very easy to put in set screws prior to levelling to get a very flat floor . The more you have one the more uses you will find to improve your working practises.

What laser level do you use then for that?

Stanley cll don't know if they are still available now . Their was a time that when I was getting the laser out on a job that other trades and tilers I was working just went out and purchased one .

I used a few times toothpicks.

The only thing I can add to that apart from the said string line is a TS40. The best new bit of kit I ever got was my first Sigma.

Lol I got a sigma 300 mm cutter new £100 about 26 ish years ago ? It replaced a nicobond one !!!! Last December I bought a rubi tx 1200n and stand over £800 trade on black fri deal !! Shows how tiles have changed aswell I got 7 different cutters plus cordless and 110 tools and edges up to 5m long I used to drive a Morris 1000 traveller back then now it's a VW t5 and that's too small ! Lol

If I needed it...... Then I would buy it.
I've managed 36 years without a laser so I don't need it......... Would it make my life easier?.......... Maybe, but to spend £200 to find out imo.... Is a waste of money.
That's just my opinion...

have to agree.. I have a laser kit I bought 2 years ago ... It's Still in the box .. Never have used it..
