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)

What does your dad do for a living?

Well, he retired. He works at back garage as a hobby, making some stuff

Well not wishing to put a damper on you gift idea, what use would a laser level be to him, as he isn't working, it's a nice thought, if he is in to making stuff as you put it, is there anything else he might find useful ? good luck anyway

If he’s hiding out back making stuff how about a home brew kit ;-). Assuming he likes the odd pint!

As Pete said, this is a specialist bit of kit so unless he’s doing that sort of work it would be wasted. Back to the drawing board - Hey how about a drawing board for planning his stuff to make?

Are you sure you not thinking of getting one for yourself, there's no shame in that

Sorry, didn't get the point of it? I'm not a native speaker, so maybe there is some hidden joke?

Sorry us natives can sometimes be subtle with our humour, no offence intended. If it is for your Pa, as suggested you might need to consider your plans.

Don't see what use a laser level would be for him to be honest? It would be on next to no use for a wood working hobby, some good wood working tools could be a wiser investment
