How to Use a String Line Level
- Gather the materials for the job: a line level, a length of string, a tape measure and some means of securing both ends of the string (usually two wooden posts in the ground).
- Secure the string to one side or corner of the area you want leveled.
- Attach the line level to the middle of the string using the small hooks on the line level.
- Pull the string tight while sliding the level up the string within eyeshot.
- Pull tightly enough to avoid any sag in the string. Even the slightest dip in the string will negatively affect your reading.
- Hold the end of the string against the post or wall and adjust up and down until the bubble rests between the black lines on the line level.
- Secure the string.
- You have found level between the two points. You can use these marks on the posts or walls to make further measurements for your home construction projects.
