The clinometer app is the way to go. It's free. It's accurate. The IOS version has a speech function. My camera protrudes (Samsung S6) but the phone case removes this issue. I have torpedo levels of varying sizes and a magnetic angle finder. The phone removes the need to use these. Also, I just realized that the clinometer app can be used as a survey scope with the camera add-on. Daaaaaaaaaaaam!

Quoted from Damien:

Here's another question about levelling... Right now the machine is on a glossy laminate floor. If I give it a good nudge, the machine moves.
I saw that you can get casters with rubber on the bottom. Would you guys suggest that, or something else to keep the machine in place?
I want to be able to nudge a little, but kind of hard when the machine moves on you.
Thanks

Quoted from P2K:

Here is a post about the accuracy of the cell phone inclinometer app:

Summary: clinometer is withing 0.2 degrees up to 20 degree measurements based on dantheglassman's data. So, it is more accurate than a bubble level since your eye cannot detect to that degree of the bubble being in the center of "the black." Now, all that said, it is going to depend on your device as well...

Quoted from Damien:

I have tried 3 Android apps, and got 3 different values. I have no idea what is going on...

How much were they different by?
