Surveyor's Levelling Instrument
Otherwise known as a dumpy level, this professional leveling tool is available in different choices of accuracy. In order to accurately measure height differences over large distances, this optical instrument uses a spirit level and telescope. From the simple model used in the 1700s, the overall concept has changed very little to those used by today’s surveyors and builders although today’s versions include electronic and self levelling features.Carpenters Level
The closest version to the original invention, a carpenter's level, is a level manufactured from wood or metal with up to 4 spirit levels built into the length. These can vary from small pocket sized versions for basic home improvements to professional spirit levels up to around 72 inches long. Digital versions, favoured by those that require a high level of accuracy, may also utilise a laser for an even higher degree of precision.Boat Level
The boat level, so named for its shape, contains 3 bubble chambers to give precise accuracy when checking horizontal, vertical and 45 degree angle surfaces. Chosen over its counterparts for shorter level requirements, the boat level can be used to check precision in both small DIY jobs and also for professional requirements. From early beginnings, the spirit level has evolved and expanded to suit a number of requirements in today’s building industry. With a large number of options available from Economy through to professional digital and laser options, at CMT we have a range of spirit levels to suit any budget.
