In previous postings I described how very sensitive spirit levels can be made by anyone. It is easier and cheaper in the long run to buy commercially made level vials. Here are two sources:
Level Developments in UK sells 13 second vials for $50.00 each.
L. S/ Starrett CO. in USA sells 10 second vials for about the same.
The vials can be put into protective bases with brass 1/2 round feet than can be sanded for fine tuning. An example is attached.
