Leveling knob system and mechanism

A leveling system comprising:

• a clamping device having
• a first clamping arm and a second clamping arm, wherein the first clamping arm and the second clamping arm each have an inner face, and the inner faces are opposed to each other and define parallel planes,
• a first base, wherein at least one of the first and second clamping arms is disposed thereon,
• a clamping mechanism connecting the first clamping arm to the second clamping arm and enabling at least one of the first and second clamping arms to move relative to the other of the first and second clamping arms, and
• a second base that is separate from, and attached to, the first base;
• and
• a leveling knob attached to the first base and comprised of a grip disposed on an end of a shaft, wherein the leveling knob adjusts positioning of the opposing, parallel faces through a range of angles perpendicular to the parallel planes of the inner faces.

A leveling system for a device, the leveling system comprising:

• a base having a top, a bottom, and a plurality of sides;
• and
• a leveling knob positioned on one of the plurality of sides of the base and comprising a spring and a grip connected at an outer end of a shaft, wherein
• the spring is engaged when the grip is moved relative to the base,
• the leveling knob is twistable in at least one of clockwise and counterclockwise rotations, and
• an angle of the base relative to a horizontal plane is adjustable via the leveling knob.
