Carpenter Level Bubble Mod for a SAK?
on: August 16, 2020, 04:47:54 PM
Has any one been clever enough to come up with a bubble for a  SAK for leveling?

I would like to have a bubble level mod on one of my SAKs.

Thanks in advance.

That would be a great mod
But I can’t see much space on a SAK for one
And most SAKs have tools on both sides
The only SAK I have that only has tools
on one side is the PioneerX  :think:

Get a thicker translucid scale, like from a Midnite Manager (58mm). Carve out the electronics, make a bottom lid for the scale, fill with water. Mark some lines outside in the midlle of the scale. Pop it back in the SAK.

If you could fit this in one of the scales. Would this work?

Better still! Just carve a hole in some regular scales to fit these in, super glue it and you're good to go!

Would love for you to post pics and explain what you did. I have a tiny bubble level lying around somewhere. I harvested it from a tool that broke. Never even occurred to me to attach it to my SAK.

Good luck!

You could also get a small (8-10mm) circular level, drill a hole of the right size in the scale and push-fit/glue it in. Not exactly what you're looking for, but probably easier.

That is one of the best Ideas ive heard in a long long time...I think it would require custom scales on both sides  :think: :think:

is there a bubble level small enough to fit inside a slot from a cybertool????

You would need to get it perfectly parallel to the body of the SAK though, wouldn't you?
Otherwise it won't be very accurate.
