Abstract: A carpenter's, mason's, or plumber's level with an elastic, flexible cord for attachment to a plank, pipe, or workpiece is disclosed. The level has a linear, bar-shaped body with a rectangular cross-section, where portions of the body may be hollow or have recessed openings therein. The level has an elastic cord connected to the body, wherein the cord is stretch-wrapped around a plank, pipe or like workpiece to attach the level thereto for angular tilt measurement. A groove, a contour, a notch, a boss, a ridge, a hole, a recess, a hook, or the like can be used to hold or snare the elastic cord when in use and to store the elastic cord on the level body when not in use. The level body has an opening to receive a bubble vial for angular tilt indication.
