Which laser level works outdoors?

I searched the discussion groups for laser levels and found a fewreferences here so I will ask you for assistance.Can anyone tell me if there exists a tool to project a straight lineabout 10 feet outdoors?I am looking for a laser level (or some other tool) to project a lineoutdoors on the ground (actually a very well maintained, extremelyshort cut grass lawn) on a sunny day. I would like to be able to seethe line for 8 to 10 feet (maximum of 20 feet). I am looking for alaser level type of projection because I can not drive any stake intothe lawn and I can not leave a mark on the lawn when I am finished.Also other people will be walking around the area and I do not wantthem to trip over any physical line. I need to adjust/rotate theprojected straight line easily a few degrees to the left or the rightas needed.I have tried the $40 to $50 laser levels found at Home Depot, Lowes, orMenards (take your pick) and they work poorly outside (in sunlight noline is visible). I expect there exists a solution but my price rangeis limited.Your suggestions (and price ranges) are most welcome. TIA, Terry

Yup - sorta makes the bricks and string idea a bit inappropriate, huh?
