Laser Chalk Line

Dozens of tools shoot arrow-straight laser beams that appear as bright-red dots. But the tape-measure-size Strait-Line ($60) projects a laser line on flat or uneven surfaces. This luminous, dead-straight beam, which can be seen over a distance of 30 feet indoors, is a useful guide when installing drywall, laying tile, hanging wallpaper, and doing many other remodeling tasks where you would ordinarily use a chalk line. Built-in anchor pins help to hold the Strait-Line firmly in place on drywall or wood so it can't be bumped out of position.
