The one thing I'm wondering is if the original was in fact exactly 30cm long as it says on the side, because you cut off a bit from both ends. Might be worth adding some brass rectangles on both ends to bring it back to exactly 30cm if so. In any case, it's an amazing restoration, great job!

it won't matter- it's used to measure level, not length. 30 cm was chosen as it could sell to the UK-American market as a foot, and still sold as a 60cm (2 foot) and 100cm (Type 133) and its' accuracy tested and advertised as either minutes per foot or yard (3 feet = 3x12inches (2.54cm)).

@@originalsusser Short cut measure for what? Those multitude times you need an exact 30cm measure but only have this level to hand? What do you do when you need to measure 40cm? All the modern Stabila levels of the various styles are labeled in cm &/or Inches yet NONE of the 8 or so I have of various types measure exactly the length. For example the type 96-2 in size 183cm/72inch measures 182.5cm to the outsides of the rubber ends. The Type 70 80cm/32inch measures 79.7cm, again to the ouside of the plastic plug ends. No, it doesn't matter.

A functional work of art! I’m so glad you took the time to restore that old wood. Nothing like it exists anymore. Many restorers have thrown out the old wood, which is devastating in my mind. The new, thicker and superior brass rings brought this project to an echelon achieved only by master craftsmen. Bravo sir!

Level vials have always been so fascinating to me, from the color, to the applied physics of the bubble, and how fragile it seems, yet remains reliable.

The label is now lying... 33cm... after you've cut the ends 😄

But did it stay 30cm when you cut the ends?

I have come to a phase in life where I really can appreciate a fine piece of wood, and that one is just beautiful in my eyes. That teak with those brass parts is a great combination. Well done on the restoration as always!
