    A:  This level works great with any square post.

      A:  Yes! I have used this device on many occasions to set posts for multiple uses. I highly recommend this device for setting post. Just be sure to remove the device when you complete setting the post or it will be lost. Plus, other team members will be very interested in getting one, perhaps yours!

        A:  Yes. We used this exclusively for installing 96 fence posts around my garden. It was way better than shifting a spirit level between the two plumb dimmensions vertically. Definitely worth it.

                      A:  Yes, it comes with a rubber band. I bought this a few years ago when I was putting up my fence. So much easier than using a standard level. I bought three and used them to check a few posts at a time.

                          A:  There is definitely a hole to screw it But they also include a rubber band- it’ll attach to one side and swing around the post/pole/pie and it has a thick lip To catch the other end to firmly hold in place

                          A:  Yes, you can possibly attach with a screw although I found a tight rubber band to be very effective and could move from post to post quickly.

Dig around post in the ground slide base over it and screw in the four will be on top put theon the other post and bolt them together. It works great but it cost a bit .

                            by|Nov 5, 2019

                              A:  Office supply stores usually have a variety of rubber bands. If their bands are too long, just tie a knot in the end to shorten it. Another suggestion may be to use two sided Velcro. A drop of super glue should affix the Velcro to the level so there will be no worry about it falling off and still allow for quick changes from one post to the next.

                                        A:  The level attaches by rubber band. So, as long as you can secure it, you should be able to use it.

                                            A:  The post material shouldn't make a difference, but the shape of the post does matter a little. It's very simple to use on square posts - but a little trickier on round posts, but it is possible. I would still recommend it for round posts, but perhaps double check it with a regular level before the post is permanently installed.

                                            A:  You could use it for T posts but my experience with it found that it did not give a true level.

                                            by|Jan 7, 2019

                                              A:  I believe it will work as long as you secure it to the t-post using rubber bands or other elastic. Also, when you say t-post I imagine that you have two 90 degree, inverted corners running up and down the post. If my assumption is correct, maybe you can stick a square block of wood into one of the corners of the t-post and then place the inside corner of the level right up against the corner of wood. And once again, secure with rubber bands. I hope this explanation makes sense.

                                                A:  I don't think so if the T-Post is too small for the level to fit snugly enough to keep it secure so it doesn't move. It works great on posts that allow it to fit snugly without moving.
