As you may remember from last year the CST/berger company was acquired by The Robert Bosch Tool Corporation. As one of the premier names in the industry there may have been some concern Bosch was just looking for the name however this is not the case. Almost all the employees and facilities have remained with the company and now work together with the teams from Bosch Laser & Measuring, David White and Rolatape to form one of the largest players in the laser and measuring tool industry. Working together and sharing engineers, resources, patents, designs, talent and backed by the innovative culture of Bosch, I expect really good things to come.
The Dot Laser Levels are primarily used for interior alignment and layout purposes. The dot or point laser makes it extremely simple to find level or plumb and set 90 degree angles. The easy to use features, low cost and compact size make it a easy choice for even a DIY user.
The Line Laser Levels are extremely versatile and primarily used indoors but also have many outdoor uses. These are the perfect choice for hanging cabinets and fixtures or aligning wires and pipes. The line laser also makes hanging a perfectly level drop ceiling so much easier than ever before. The LM2 model is ideal for flooring applications such as tile because it holds two perfectly 90 degree lines and unlike chalk lines you can never cover a laser with mortar and loose the line.
The Rotary Laser Levels are the most sophisticated of the laser levels with many interior and exterior uses. There are unfortunately many models and packages to choose from which can seem intimidating at first but if you know generally what your needs are, you will find it is very strait forward in determine the right rotary laser for you. Rotary lasers are perfect for ensuring a level floor throughout an area, doing interior or exterior building layouts and work up to 2800 ft. away with a detector. For interior use most models will work in lay-down mode with vertical self leveling but another great option is the Bosch Dual-Axis rotary laser, the only one on the market, which lays a horizontal and vertical laser.
