    DeWalt DW087K Self-Leveling Line Laser

    There is a newer model on the market now, but that seems to have only helped the DW087k drop in price. I bought mine after speaking to a few guys who use laser levels day in day out and they felt it was the best of the lot, can now get it for just over £100! Great for marking downlights...
