A DeWalt laser level is so accurate an easy to use, it will make you want to give up your old spirit level forever.

How Spirit Levels Work

Are you still using an old-fashioned spirit level? That's the one that looks like a yardstick with two vials of colored liquid with an air bubble inside. Used by bricklayers, stone workers, and carpenters, the spirit level worked by adjusting it until the bubble in the window lines up between marks on the center of the glass.

The glass vials inside spirit levels are usually filled with ethanol because it has a low freezing point. Spirit levels tell a builder how level or how plumb a surface really is.

How The DeWalt Laser Level Works

The DeWalt Laser Level is a battery-operated precision level that replaces your old spirit levels. A laser line level works by using a spirit level in conjunction with a laser. The handheld laser level replaces the spirit level in virtually all applications. A laser beam projector uses a head that rotates while a mirror sweeps the beam around a vertical axis. The operator carries a moveable sensor which gives off an audible signal the sensor is lined up with the beam.

Unlike mere spirit levels, a DeWalt laser level checks level lines across distances up to 75 feet. It sets up quickly and easily with a leveling base. The DeWalt laser level includes a magnetic groove so you can attach it to pipes, steel door frames, or any other steel surface.

Verify The Accuracy Of Your DeWalt Laser Level

Whether you're remodeling an existing home or starting with new construction, you should know how to check your DeWalt laser level for accuracy. Establishing and maintaining plumb and level is one of the most important parts of any construction project, so you won't want to skip this important step.

Go to an open area and mark two points at least 100 feet apart. Mark the points well, with flags or rocks. Take two readings, from points one and two, at an angle that does not require you to swing the level much. Subtract the height at point one from the height at point two.

Now measure two points that require you to swing the level at least 180 degrees. Take the two readings again and measure the difference between them. The two measurements should be the same, or within 10 millimeters of one another.

Enjoy using your DeWalt laser level on your next carpentry or bricklaying project.

DeWalt hasn't made radial arm saws since 1985, but that doesn't keep DeWalt from being one of the most popular .radial arm saw brands today. DeWalt radial arm saw owners rely on DeWalt service centers and a handful of third parties that sell and service refurbished radial arm saws to keep their DeWalt saws running smoothly. Why are all these DeWalt radial arm saw owners so loyal to the brand? We set out to find the history behind the mystery.

The Man Behind The Company: Raymond DeWalt

The man behind the DeWalt radial arm saw is Raymond E. DeWalt, the son of a mill worker. While working as a superintendent on a farm, DeWalt recognized that it was the labor costs, not the lumber, on his construction jobs that would drive the price of a project up. DeWalt was constantly tinkering with the saws to get them to work harder.

Eventually, DeWalt designed an arm attachment for a saw that could be raised, lowered, moved back and forth, angled, and tilted. This innovative machine was described as being able to do the work of four men. With one of these versatile saws, a carpenter could make cross cuts, ripping cuts, miter cuts, dado cuts, and rabbet cuts. This was the first DeWalt radial arm saw.

The DeWalt Wonder Worker

Raymond DeWalt formed the DeWalt Products Company in Leola, Pennsylvania, in 1924. Around this time he began marketing his amazing saw, which he would patent a year later, as the "DeWalt Wonder Worker." The company expanded quickly, moving to new quarters in a modern plant and office building in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in 1929.

The company stopped production of its radial arm saws in 1989, and shifted focus to the cordless power tool market, launching its largest product line ever in 2001.
