Discuss Sould i buy a laser level?? Wat kind?? in the UK Tiling Forum area at TilersForums.com.
I've got use of a de walt self levelling all singing all dancing jobby, about £900 worth, but to be honest I think the dot/line is too thick imo:gettree:
I got a cheapy rotary from B&Q some time ago to help line up kitchen work surfaces in a kitchen over two seperate areas. Complete waste of time, it wouldn't rotate properly and you could barely see the line. I ended up doing it with a water level.
A while after that I had to tile a bathroom with hand made glass tiles which were all odd sizes so it was impractical to use a batten and every row needed to be spaced about a level line. I bought a black and decker self levelling laser which hung on a nail or screw. The bathroom was an odd shape and no room for a tripod so a much better solution in that instance. I'd have thought that unless your into tiling commercial areas this sort of thing would be more use. How many bathrooms in this country could you work round a tripod without knocking it?

That is a really good laser Doug, esp for the bigger jobs arty3:
I use a De-Walt DW087K .....great bit of kit - got it for £130 with the tripod ...perfect for all sorts of smaller jobs .....some really good things about this one -
1) As far as I know - it is the only self leveller in this price range that will strike a vertical line behind itself -clever stuff
2) It's designed to be fixed temporarily with a screw if you need to hold it lower than the minimum tripod height (I do that a lot)
3) The self levelling has a really good level of tolerance and The line flashes if it's out of tolerance
I started out with a couple of cheap ones and quickley found out how crap they were !! ....promptly sold on Ebay and got the De-Walt ....I'd say it's like anything else mate - you really do get what you pay for - buy De-Walt or Stabila IMO :8:
