Is this a good leveling tool?

Hi,

I recently came accross this item, while reading on a forum.

http://srm-tech.co.uk/epages/4c008923-2265-416e-a207-cc9dd8b06028.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/4c008923-2265-416e-a207-cc9dd8b06028/Products/TSL1

I used my clearaudio level gauge to level my TT but I can't place the level gauge in the very center of the platter. This one can be placed on the very center. Is it helpful or is the presentation of it o the SRM-tech website just rubbish? Has anyone here used this item before?

Otherwise they have a clamp with a bubble level as well. Any feedback would be welcome.

Best,

But what about placing the bubble level in the exact center of the platter? Is it really more accurate?
No, if the platter is level, then any place on the platter will be the same, level. If there is a difference between two points on the platter, then as Wntrmute2 said, "Better get rid of that platter then!"

Right. That makes totally sense to me when you explain things that way. Thank you gentlemen for your accurate and detailed answers.

I use a digital straight level in the manner ZD explained. The digital readout is a bit more accurate than a bubble.

Thanks for this last tip Viridian. Well, my platter is flat and has been designed to be leveled at any point but I'll keep your advice in mind, just in case :)
