#BUBBLE LEVEL PROFESSIONAL#
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. From early beginnings, the spirit level has evolved and expanded to suit a number of requirements in today’s building industry. 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. 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. Digital versions, favoured by those that require a high level of accuracy, may also utilise a laser for an even higher degree of precision. These can vary from small pocket sized versions for basic home improvements to professional spirit levels up to around 72 inches long. 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. Betalights provide the spirit level with a continuous and secure tritium light source that preserves night-vision and enables readings to be taken quickly. 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. In order to accurately measure height differences over large distances, this optical instrument uses a spirit level and telescope. From such an early concept, a number of different types of spirit level have been created to suit a variety of requirements using that same initial principal: Surveyor's Levelling Instrument Otherwise known as a dumpy level, this professional leveling tool is available in different choices of accuracy. However, it was not until the early 18th Century that the spirit level is thought to have widespread use. He noticed how, in order for a bubble in a tube of water (or spirit) to be positioned centrally, it required the tube be mounted on a surface that was exactly horizontal. We offer curbside pickup for online orders, as well as several shipping options. Melchisedech was a wealthy Frenchman and although known as a royal librarian for King Louis XIV, was in fact an amateur mathematician and scientist. Collection page for Bubble Levels is loaded.
The spirit level was invented by Melchisedech Thevenot. Used to ascertain whether a surface is level on a horizontal surface or plumb, or for vertical accuracy, the history of the spirit level is thought to date back as far as the early 15th Century. Bricklayers, surveyors, carpenters just a few of the professions who use different types of spirit level as an essential part of their toolkit.
