Strate Mate...Was Remedial String Leveling

For years I have carried a cheap piano level. When moving, or getting ready 
to level strings, or debating the logo placement or pictures on the wall. 
Whatever. On stage, or in the living room. For adjusting castor cups, 
upright or grand, front-to-back, and side-to-side. Takes a little skill, 
you have to use your noggin a bit. Sometimes it gets you into an unneeded 
conversation with the customer. It's virtually indestructible, but I've had 
several over the years. I find them more often than I lose them. Size is 
almost irrelevant, although I think there may be an accuracy correlation. 
Color, on the other hand, can be.... well.... maybe that's too cosmic for 
this list.
So, anyway, I'm sure I'm not the only one here that carries a marble. I've 
lost most of the others!

later,
Guy
