Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Starrett Machinists Levels have ground and graduated main vials and include a cross test vial. The base of the levels feature an involute groove running the length of the base which provides a reliable seat for round work. The 8" main level vials have graduations that are approximately 80 -90 seconds or .005" per foot. To guarantee accuracy, the length of your level should not be longer than the work you are leveling.

Starrett 98-8 8-Inch Precision Machinists Level,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Starrett 98-8 8-Inch Precision Machinists Level
I use this to level and match slates on pool tables. The slates, not just the legs. Believe me this thing will tell you the truth. Took me about 20 minutes to calibrate, not a problem when it will tell you when you are within 1/1000 of an inch per foot. It is only gradiated to 5/1000 of an inch but each gradiation it more than an 1/8 of an inch apart and dividing these into 5ths is easy. Believe me when I say A Pool table worked over and shimmed properly with this will be the levelest table you ever played on.

Starrett 98-8 8-Inch Precision Machinists Level,

This review is from: Starrett 98-8 8-Inch Precision Machinists Level
This is a fine piece of equipment. Very well made, solid, carefully machined. A good level is one of the few precision measuring devices that is self- calibrating. It did not arrive calibrated but ten minutes of tinkering put things right and it has been perfectly adequate to the task of leveling the beds and ways of a whole shop full of mills and other precision cutting machinery. You can spend a lot more without getting appreciably better results. The photos are a little misleading in that there is only one level in the box. The instrument has two glasses( a "major" and a "minor") set at 90 degrees in the same plane, both on the same frame. The "major" glass is the only one that is truly accurate. The "minor" glass just lets you know if you are in the ballpark with respect to the second axis of the plane you are concerned about. Starrett 98-8 8-Inch Precision Machinists Level
