Making a Large Spirit Level

Items you will need:
  • 2 large lemonade bottles.
  • Hose pipe
  • Bradle or drill
  • Marker pen
  • Water

  • Make a hole in the bottom of the lemonade bottles to prevent an air lock.
  • Connect one end of the hose to the neck of one of the bottles.
  • Fill the hose and bottle with water.
  • Fix the second bottle to the other end of the hose.
  • Hold both bottles level with each other and mark the water level.
  • Secure one of the bottles to a stake. When the second bottle is moved around, the water will flow from one bottle to the other, therefore when the water is level with the mark the bottles are at the same height.
