The problem with levels is that if you want to do the job right, you really need to have a level that fits the size of your project. For door installers this might be a 78” and a 32” level, and for cabinet installers this might be a 24” and a 48”. The Mosely Infinity Level wants to solve this problem with their modular system, where level sections can connect to form a level from 12” up to infinity.

The Screwpop Company started out with a simple tool that allowed people to have easy access to a bottle opener that doubled as a screwdriver and fit on a key ring. Now, a few years later, they have a number of bottle openers that all feature secondary tools, the latest being the Screwpop Utility Knife.
