Box Beam Levels
Irwin's box beam levels are designed for accuracy and durability, constructed with premium-grade aluminum that offers unrivaled strength. The level resists warping, twisting or bending, and is guaranteed to remain accurate, even after a two-story drop or 50-degree temperature change. The vials include PlumbSite™ and a luminous backing for easier reading in low-light situations. The vials also will never break, fade, fog, leak or develop static charge and can be calibrated in seconds with a simple turn of a hex key or Philips screwdriver. At the end of the day, the powder-coated finish allows for easy cleaning and removal of mortar. For more information, please visit www.irwin.com/irwin/consumer/jhtml/levels/levels.jhtml.

Giant Chalk Boxes
If you're snapping dozens of lines or need big bold lines provided by a thicker string, grab a Giant and get the job done. Some of the advantages include: a "glovable" grip for cold weather or rough conditions; a huge Big Mouth" opening to ease fill up and a no-leak stopper to keep it shut until you want to chalk up; a steel rewind crank for a long life; a recessed handle clasp stores the handle out of the way; loose woven, polyester string that holds the chalk until it's snapped right where you want it; and an ABS case that takes a beating.

Rule Of Thumb™ Masons Rule
The revolutionary, U.S. patent pending, professional mason's layout and coursing rule is four tapes in one. This 25' mason's layout and coursing rule covers all of the traditional brick sizes-modular, standard and oversized-and also offers a general construction layout rule. Also, a 16" mark on the tape serves as a counter to easily determine the number of blocks or studs to locate wall tie points, and a red pin mark acts as a quick reference for most oversized bricks.
