I hate it when you guys talk about expensive tools ........ NOW I must get one. Seriously I really can't tell the difference between the $30 plus level against my Mayers $10 level. Is it that much of a difference? Someone school me please. BTW Happy Easter everyone.

why are you on my nuts randomkiller? I can't help if I have tools just sitting in my car unopened. I have them because they were on Sale and I couldn't pass it up. I also sell them to any of the helpers on my crew that need them. Yeah your right I do have alot of tools and yeah it does make me good knowing I have backup

Just busting your balls for posting those picks, nothing personal. If you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen.

I just can't leave a new tool un-opened. Opening a new tool is like undressing a.... well maybe I won't go there.....

I'm the same way, it has to be out of the wrapper to be fingered I mean handled.

That would give a whole new meaning to sitting in a truck and playing with a pair of dikes.

Haha I don't mind spending 70 bucks on a level if it is going to last me a long time. Cheap levels maybe last me a year...and I can't remember the last time I lost a tool or had one stolen either...
