PeterE makes a small Engineers Level

<< < (3/3)

PeterE:
Andrew,

Thank you. Now that you mention the possibilities to adjust the level for different tasks I recall that GH Thomas mentioned in his Model Engineers Workshop Manual that he had made a level which was possible to adjust at any time by thumb screws, and as you say, it is easy to reset by turning it around.

Hmmm, think I have to add the adjustability feature to this one ....

I'll be back.

Peter, you could just have springs or compressible pads under your assembly that are squashed by a knurled hold down screw. I'll try and photograph mine in the morning for you

awemawson:
Pictures of my Rabone Chesterman as promised

PeterE:
Thank you for the pictures Andrew, very informative!  :thumbup:

I will think a bit and evaluate some good ideas that came up here.
