I haven't yet played with laser measuring units, only laser levels.

I forgot to ask you: what laser level do you like? I'm still using string
levels and a Hoppy transit, but the laser levels look interesting.


I found a nice little guy, a StraitLine Intersect, on eBay for $15
delivered. It works well for both walls and floors. Here ya go: $12.50

The prices on those basic laser levels certainly are reasonable. I'll take a
look at that one. It looks like it ought to be OK for handyman jobs. Thanks.

It's ok for far more than handyman job. 100' is sufficient range for
most all residential construction purposes, you might need 600' range if
you're building a mall or office building.
