Two Methods for Preventing Tear Out

The Stabila level does beep as the ad says. I have one and used it to build my
shop and I built it alone. They are pricey not because of the beeper built in,
but the extra features that us totals can't use. Such as degree and angle of
incline, and of course the ever popular German engineered

sorry we havn't, some folks say that the commercial identifiers do better

Hi,
We've checked this out as well, and this is as good as it gets. However, if
you go to stabila.com and put in your zip code for local distributors, you
can usually find someone locally who actuallys sells the level at a more
reasonable, sometimes lower, price.

Hi:
It really depends on how established the rust is.
If it is only new, then apply some linseed oil and leave it to penetrate for
a few days.
Then, firmly rub your fingers along the rusty areas in order to remove that
rust and to establish (by the traction to your fingers) where the major

The phone filters are to prevent extraneous noise from penetrating into the

I never heard of a high temp that it wouldn't work at. Once you get above 35
it's a bit of a waste because nature is melting the ice for you.
I do remember from living in Western New York for many years that rock salt
doesn't work when the temperature is much below 10 or 15 degrees.
Why does rock salt melt snow? What you are really doing is converting fresh
water to salt water. The freezing temperature of salt water is 20°F. So if
the
temperature is between 20°F and 32°F, salt (Sodium Chloride) works.
Calcium Chloride melts to -15°F and generates its own heat. This means
