Laser Level - dad's birthday

[soap94]

Hello everyone, i need some recommendations about laser level. I'm thinking of getting one (for my dad's birthday), and have one idea which one to buy.
Of course, I read a bunch of articles and reviews and have a "priority list", but i need you help as well. Here is a photo

It's actually not my list, got it from web. What are your thoughts about these items? Which laser level is the best? (considering price as well)

a DIY vodka still like my Polish b--i- l has got. might be a good idea. 100% proof from a few potatoes and some magic ingredients.

The laser level is more something you would use on site (fitting kitchens, putting up stud walls etc) My grandad was a joiner and he would make things in the shed, so as 123 suggested, some good quality wood working tools might be better, failing that a DAB radio, can't go wrong with that!

Have a Stanley cross level one myself, doesn't break the bank and a brilliant job

If he is messing with boards,etc.get him a Trend Pocket Hole jig,he can do some really good,strong and neat joins,even on a bird-house.

Dads love LED torches,diamond hones,and call-girls...

Only two of the above,are also popular with Mum

give him a laser level so he could use to point at aircraft!

Go for the Dewalt one, or a Hilti one if you want to treat him, the green laser is easier to spot and seems sharper than my Dewalt one

Rather than a laser level you may find he would get more use out of a laser square or a laser mouse or perhaps just a spirit level with a laser line for the extra distance.

The cheaper brands £40-£50 would be fine for decorating, hanging shelves, dado rail, and pictures etc, it wouldn't need to be the top of the range laser level that are used on site.
There are plenty to choose from from the likes of B&Q & Screwfix etc. However, I would try and get one that has the option of a fixed pendulum to allow it to project at angles also.
