What is a plumb?
| A plumb bob (sometimes called a "plumb bob" or "plumb bob") consists of a specially balanced symmetrical weight, usually with a narrow or pointed end, that is attached to and suspended from a rope to create a vertical reference line. . | |
| Once a plumb bob is hung, the laws of gravity will act on it to create a perfectly vertical line, which has many practical uses such as transferring points, using as a guide, or marking lines before any construction work or cutting. |
 | There are typical plumb lines, such as the traditional type, and others with additional features, such as magnetic strip or retractable pin plummets, each with specific features that help them with different tasks. |
