hi all,
i own and use a site level, on a job last week i had the use of a laser level. i work on my own most of the time and using the laser level was so much easyer, so now i am thinking of buying one. i've been on a site thats selling leica laser level with staf and tripod for £320, ive got the staf and tripod so poss a bit cheaper. think tony knows this firm because his site is recomended. thoughts please
cheers dylan

Leica - you really can't get much better.

I didn't know they were recommending my site. I have no connection with the company and it must be 10 years since I last bought owt from them (via an approved stockist).

I used to buy most of my survey kit from Survey Systems in Wilmslow but over recent years, I've been sourcing bits and pieces for the training group from York Survey Supplies in....errr...York.

Had an engineer get really upset with me on a site because everytime he came to check on my setting out he found me with his level. So the project manager went out and bought me a cheap model leica. Worked a treat and had thumbs up from the engineer as he checked on my levels. :;):

tony this is the site i was looking at www.setting-out.com
it says they import the levels so i am not sure weather its so good at £250 for something i only use 2 or 3 times a month, thinking i might as well keep useing my site level. when i saw your site logo it did reasure me that they were a good firm as they proberly are but dosent mean there kit is very good.
thanks for all other replies

Hi,

Web site is fltgeosystems.com. no connection with company, just happy with the purchase.
