I love the haunting sound of this. You did a great job on it. I like what Uncle John said: "Think of the hands that used it and the things that were built." What would the various artisans who used this spirit level think about such great music coming out of their old, worn tool?

thanks Digly. Yeah they seem ideal to use as are pretty solid. Good to see you and Judith yesterday : -)

Oops, only just caught up with this - been a bit busy lately !

Great sound and a really neat way to recycle an old spirit level.  Nice work :-)

Finally got a chance to watch and listen. Wonderful tone! I am always amazed at the beautiful simplicity of your playing. Very atmospheric and dreamy. You're getting very good at this gig, Be.
