Swear to god, I didn't know what that little screw was for. Learned something!

They used spirits because it didn't freeze.

Old bricklayer/hobbiest woodworker here, I like using a level instead of winding sticks when I'm hand planing boards flat. You don't have to keep setting up the sticks and walking around to sight them, just plop a level down right where you're standing.

Came for Rex is wrong, agree because when I needlessly use it, I learn more even if it's irrelevant to the project

[wpke]

Never knew wooden ones were adjustable, even though it totally makes sense. That said, I never owned one, but always like to learn more. Thanks for showing that!

I had heard that the use of 'spirits' (a.k.a. alcohol) was so that they wouldn't freeze, which also led to them being referred to as 'whiskey sticks'.

I just got my first 3 wooden levels as part of a vintage tool lot I bought. Had seen Rex's video, so didn't think too much of them. Glad you made this video!!

[cathellis]

I find my spirit level useful as a straight edge. I use it for that way more than for putting up curtain rails

[mattpage]

The "Dadness" of the spooky spirit level did garner a chuckle. Thanks for that.

When the spirit moves you, new video ideas bubble up!

“They filled them with spirits! killed me 😂😂. Laser levels are so cool and useful for a million things… plus, everything’s better with lasers!

[tatehogan]

These videos keep getting better, you really are leveling up your content!

When I worked in an cabinet shop we used them to build stages that we would then use to build accurate woodwork.

[limnificant]

Rex is making his dis track right now.

[jons]

I for 1 appreciate you leveling w/ us.

[martydom]

I love your videos and rex's just watched you hand tool restoration video was great. Anywho I need a Stanley 55 left sided fence and a center screw for the adjustable skate. 😊

[scottmarshall]

I use two different levels (one wood, one aluminum) as winding sticks.

[zaphodbeeblebrox]

They would sometimes mix them with coke levels too.

[nickmastro]

Thanks for leveling with us. Always informative and entertaining.

I am so glad that you like all your children - even levels.

Over here, in Scotland, many people call them “beads”. I have about 5 or 6. Different sizes? Lengths, materials and uses. Mind you, I also have about ten plumb bobs.
