Hello,
Does anyone have any experience with the Stabila LaserBob? I’m planning a second floor addition, and I’m in the market for a system that levels, plumbs, and squares – with adequate accuracy – for a ~ 20 x 40 ft house.
Thnx,
Edwin

I really like the Robo Vector - sounds similar. The self leveling part makes it tons handier than a manual adjust.
I use one and love it. It is great for plumb (dot) and for level (generates a line and has a decteor for exterior work), but it does not shoot square.

According to their website, the LA-4P LaserBob plumbs, levels, and squares. Do you have this model?
I have this one http://stabila.com/main.taf?p=1,2,1,8
the laser you are referring won't shoot a laser line horizontal, just dots. It is similar to the PLS 5x we used to use. I don't think it is worth it.
The laser bob above that I pasted the link to shoots plumb and generates a level line. This is much more useful.
If you want square, then go with the PLS90e because you can square different elevations, like a stepped foundation.http://www.pioneerbuildersonline.com
