marking out a kitchen

[RichardMoore]

Hi all
I do a lot of kitchens and have done one recently were the sockets were all out. Ie **** to my disbelief. So I blamed the f***ing level as I Mark out by spirit level and pencil line. I've tried a laser level also this was good for a while. Until I drop it on the floor and then that went wonky. Anyway I was wondering if anybody has any alternative methods I could try out or and opinion on any said methods many thanks in advance

Yep ................ that's absolutely true.

A bricklayer would never be able to build a wall using an Engineers' level - the bubble would be all over the place with just the slightest movement and an Engineer would never be able to level and line machinery up using a builders level. The accuracy needed just isn't there.

Accurate to 1 minute.

Accurate to 1 minute.

Fancy bleedin alarm clocks....might be nearly half an hour fast (or slow) each day.

Can you guys actually recommend a decent lazer level? I'm looking for my first one!
Obviously good for marking out on walls and even better if I can mark out ceilings for spots!!

 

[telectrix]

for ceiling spots. a chalk line is far better.

Oh I'm very lucky.......... he sometimes unchains my ankle from the large cannonball and allows me to pour him whisky or make him dinner. He even throws meat through the bars on Sundays if I'm good. :crazy:
