What do you guys reckon? I need it mainly for ground work but obviously I'll find a million other applications for it so I want a good one. I just don't want to pay for it lol. No I don't want to be talking £500+ or anywhere near that figure basically!

Cheers

If its for a one off job your doing, i would just hire one.

Otherwise your looking at £800+ new or £300+ second hand.

You could always get creative and build your own.

Get two large syringes, garden hose and some water, use them to build a water level.
