Abstract
Various laser level designs are shown. In one example, a laser level includes a rotating laser projection assembly to allow users to adjust the placement of the discontinuity in the projected laser plane. In another example, the laser level includes a lanyard attachment robust enough to support the weight of the laser level. The lanyard attachment includes a plurality of prongs that enhance the coupling to the housing of the device.
