V-Groove + Top-Read Vial
V-grooved bottom edge reads true on round stock; top-read vial gives an at-a-glance reading from above when the bottom edge is wedged into the work.
Oversized Vial Port
Vial window sized for clean readability across the layout. Screwed-tight covers lock the vials in place so they hold position after the corner drop.
Heavy-Duty Rubber End Caps
Rubber end caps absorb the corner drop so the read holds. Same impact-survival behavior the trades expect from a job-site level.
