Bought a fancy laser level for $180 and my old bubble level gave straighter lines.
Spent all afternoon setting up that green beam thing only to realize the bubble level on a scrap 2x4 was more reliable for hanging cabinets in my 1920s kitchen with wonky walls has anyone else ditched high tech gadgets for the simple stuff?

Lol I read somewhere that those laser levels can be thrown off by temperature changes in old houses. My dad's been hanging shelves for 30 years with a plain level and I dont think he's ever missed.

Solidarity from my whole workbench here. Spent a Saturday wrestling with a "self leveling" laser that kept blinking error codes over my 1960s bathroom tile. Finally just grabbed dad's old torpedo level and had those shelves up in fifteen minutes flat.
