I can’t remember the name of this specific tool, but I’m hoping if I can describe what it does, someone will be able to tell me. I believe it’s made by stanley, but I could be wrong. You drill a hole in a 2 x 4, and insert this laser and the beam marks the next hole. You drill that and the laser moves on. Anyone know what tool I’m describing? I seem to remember it was rather expensive, but it’s still cool for getting the proper pitch for plumbing or for making electric look professional. Any ideas?
