In the market and want to purchase a cross line auto align laser level that can mount to a standard camera tripod. What are you using in your studio? Thanks in advance.
I’ve got a couple from Skil that were pretty cheap at Lowe’s (I don’t know if you have them in your area):
That link doesn’t say anything about a tripod, but when I bought in-store, they even came with crappy tripods. I’m generally not a big fan of Skil tools, but these were cheap and they work fine.
I also have a PLC that I bought through BikeFit that also fits the tripod mount.
It looks like Lowe’s has a really good sale on a Bosch laser level going right now:

I don’t have experience with this particular unit, but I do like Bosch tools a lot.
I recently bought a Bosch GLL-2 base model crossline laser (range about 10 meters) off amazon for around $60, no tax, free shipping. That was $20 less then what Home Depot was charging for the same item . It comes with a mounting clamp, not a tripod, but I simply attached this to a stool or chair.

Works very well even in bright areas - A great spread an included knee straps and stickers
