Definitely too fiddly for hanging gutters. I'll just use a regular
level.
I did get a response to my complaint to Ace Hardware, from the Johnson
Level company. While they showed general concern, and offered a
replacement, they didn't offer an explanation of why it was out of
level. They told me how to test for accuracy on its feet, but that's
not why I bought a *line* level.
A plus to them is there's enough meat on the hooks that I can file one
down to make it level. Not the case with the other two I have.
