    Nice work there hemmjo
    Just a useful thought though, each graduation on the vial of the level represents .005", beings you made the base of your level 6" long and your using a vial that is made and graduated for a 8" level your error would nearly double, Example:when you put a piece of paper under the level that was .003" thick it would move your bubble about .005"- .006" meaning you couldn't use the level for precise work, just as reference, look at your last photo and it shows how much the bubble moved every time you added .003"
    You did a beautiful job though !
