Levels in their basic form have been used for thousands of years. Ancient South American Indians used a crude form of the level, utilizing water in a bowl to form a bubble, to design and build their irrigation canals. Modern researchers have marveled at the engineering of these canals, none of which would have been possible without the use of a level. Since then this handy tool has evolved into the implement we see today in most do-it-yourselfers tool boxes, as well as the larger commercial job sites.
I considered the suede handbags for a moment. "I think my friend might like something a little more trendy. Do you have anything trendy?""It's still better than I've ever gotten."Somehow I got it into my head to buy my friend a handbag. It seemed simple enough. I've never had a problem buying toolboxes, cabinets or file folders, so how hard would it be to pick up a handbag?SalesLady mercifully ignored my comment. "How about these vinyl horoscope handbags?""Hey, they are soft. They'd be great for pillow fights.""I don't think my friend is much of a professional corporate type. She's more casual.""Yes. And if she doesn't, at least she can't kick me with it.""...conservative!" SalesLady piped in. "Here are some classic handbags, for more conservative tastes.""I would like to buy a handbag for a friend, please."
Few jobs could be completed without this humble, but necessary implement. Whatever the job there is a level available to aid in the completion of it. Choose the right one, take care it and it will take care of you for years to come.
