Torpedo Level

© Home-Cost.com 2006
A level is a handy tool to have around for home repair projects, and a hand-held torpedo level like this one is a great, inexpensive basic tool. The torpedo level gets its name from its boat like shape and is a versatile level that you can keep in a small tool kit.

The level has a slightly arched glass tube partially filled with a fluid, usually water, creating a bubble. When the bubble is centered between the glass tube markings, the level is, well, level. Simple huh?
