What, you think we are going to hear about a level slide competition and NOT throw in an entry?!

What happens here

Obtain a long spirit level, ideally one that is at least as long as a significant section of the deck. Carefully place one end of the spirit level onto the deck frame at the starting point of the demonstration. Ensure the level is oriented correctly, parallel to the joists or the intended path of travel, and is stable before initiating the slide. The goal is to position it so it can smoothly glide across the entire surface.

Goal: Place the spirit level at the starting point, ready for the slide demonstration.

Tools and materials

  • Deck Frame N/A — The surface upon which the spirit level will slide
  • Long Spirit Level — The primary tool used to demonstrate the deck's levelness by sliding it across the surface
