Laser levels

Oh come on.... everybody knows they used alien technology to build the pyramids.

I havent had much luck with "leveling" at all. Id rather make the surfaces "align" than level. Sometimes the room itself is not level and your leveling can look off because of this. I found this a lot in hanging pictures and drapes, etc.

One room has long windows in my house and the ceiling is not aligned with the windows but you coudnt tell since its all white. When I hung curtains I was stuck not knowing if I should align to windows or ceiling. In the end I aligned to ceiling since you cant see the window line once the drape was installed. This was a redo. The first install I did with a B&D laser level, and it didnt match either window or ceiling.

When you install cabinets and shelves, you damn well better "level".

Ok. I give up. I have never heard of the term "dumpy level" before nor can I figure out what it means by the context. Will someone please take pity on poor ol' me and pound the meaning into my thick head. Thanks. Larry "Robatoy" wrote in >

snip IMHO, one is much better off to buy a decent mid-range dumpy level.
