Review on ๐Ÿ”ด DEWALT DW088K: Red Beam Cross Line Self-Leveling Line Laser for Accurate Alignment by Luis Neels

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good solution, works well

I bought this to fix a fence on my property that was falling apart. I chose to build it from individual picket fences rather than using the prefabricated fence panels available at major hardware stores simply because they are such low quality. The results speak for themselves. I used the DW088K to make sure my crossbars were level and my pickets were plumb. I am attaching a photo of the finished work. I could never achieve this level of accuracy with just a bubble level. I used an old thrift camera tripod to set the level. My only complaint is that it's almost impossible to see in sunlight. Dewalt laser glasses help, but I've found that working early or late in the day works a lot better than in the middle of the day. In general, I have no regrets. I am very satisfied with its usefulness.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • No instructions
