I guess that I really don't want a Laser Level. What I want is 
something that I put on a ruler that is across the cockpit and it reads 
the angle. That angle should be 0 degrees. If the angle is not 0 
degrees, I would like to push a button and have the "level" consider 
that new angle to be 0 degrees. Next I want to go under the airplane 
and put the "level" against the landing gear and give me a reading 
relative to the horizontal reading that we just took but off by 90 
degrees. Then I will adjust my gear legs to be 90 degrees relative to 
the relatively horizontal airplane.

I think what Sears is selling is what I want. Sears calls it a Laser 
Protractor. The price is sounding better all of the time, since I can't 
find another one. The problem with the Sears product is that it can 
only be ordered on line and Sears has very slow shipping. Actually the 
shipping isn't what is slow. It is the packing that takes 2 to 3 days.

Back to my original question, Are there any other Laser Protractors, or 
whatever they are called, made? If there are, how do I get in touch 
with the manufacturer?

What are these devices called? Apparently a Laser Level is not what I 
want.

Thanks Again,
