  • I think you need a new bubble for the spirit level.

  • Ha. That thing. Was bought by a friend because no one had thought of bringing a level.
    Could be used as a rough guide or to play with the cat.

  • I have two spirit levels and neither agree. Suspect I need to replace with better ones that are adjustable.

  • If you're needing something level and you don't know how accurate the spirit level is, its definitely worth reverse checking it first.

    Simply place the spirit level on a clean flat surface and note where the bubble is (or the digital reading). Rotate the level 180 and reposition it in the same place. Ideally you'd be on a known level surface and the bubble should be centred (reading 0) both ways, although your chosen surface needn't be level, so long as the indicated angle reads the same (a digital 0.75 would change -0.75)
