[Blunt Tool]

If you need someone, there’s a guy Manchester way I’ve used and he’s excellent.
Quoted me £30 to recalibrate and it turned out it was a little more complicated.
Told me that it should of cost £80 but he’d quoted £30 and that’s all he wanted.
We argued and settled on £50.
Out and back to me inside 4 days.

Was yours out of calibration?

Was yours out of calibration?

Yes Ian, but only on floor cross hairs, but I haven’t needed that function nearly all year, it’s all been wall fixing and it was perfectly ok.
On floors however one of the beams drifted by about a mm a metreish.
Didn’t get it sorted til I needed it.
It needed to be dismantled, hence the extra cost.
It’s perfect again now and its kept in a box which is just a little bigger than the laser and is lined with protection.

Is your Bosch a 360 too Ian?

 

[Waluigi]

It tells you how to test the laser in the book that comes with the Dewalt.

Yeah bit complicated

 

[Waluigi]

Yeah it does appear complicated but it’s not too bad. Have a look on YT, I’m sure there’s lots on there. I’m pretty sure my Bosch laser had a simplified explanation. I’ll have a look later

Huh! Don’t talk to me about them!!
I sent it there first, not only did I have a whole load of trouble getting them to inspect it, took two weeks, maybe even three, can’t remember.
And when they returned it, it was exactly the same!! And because I hadn’t needed the function that was out of whack, I didn’t realise until some months later, and there was no change at all.

When I found this other guy, the difference was apparent immediately.

If you want his details I’ll PM them to you.

Dunno mate without checking.
You should know that anything north of the M25 is alien to me.

Does the DCE089D1G justify it's high price tag? Is it good value for money are there more economical models out there

There are more airplanes in the sea than there are submarines in the sky! Hope this helps
