Plumb measuring device

A plumb measuring device for measuring the plumbness of a vertical surface, said device comprising:

• (a) a bar member having a flat surface adapted to be aligned with said vertical surface, said bar member also having attaching means at each end of said bar member for attachment of bar extensions to increase the length of said bar member and having first and second spaced apart receiving means spaced inwardly from the ends of said bar member;
• (b) a scale plate pivotally mounted on said bar member at a pivot point, said scale plate being provided with a calibrated indicator scale on the upper edge thereof for determining the plumbness of said vertical surface;
• (c) a bubble level attached to said scale plate to determine the level line of said scale plate;
• (d) indicia marked on said bar adjacent said scale plate's upper edge for reading the scale on said plate, and
• (e) U-shaped spacer means for detachable connection to said bar member to act as a stand off, said U-shaped spacer means being formed with an intermediate portion having a plane surface parallel to said flat surface of said bar member and adapted for alignment with said vertical surface to be measured and having two spaced apart legs extending in the same plane from said intermediate portion and terminating in free ends which are formed with connecting means that are spaced apart a distance substantially equal to the distance at which said receiving means on said bar member are spaced apart to permit engagement of each connecting means with a receiving means and connection of said spacer means to said bar member.
