Plumb.—You can make a plumb-line by merely hanging anyweight at the end of a cord, when the cord will of course bevertical as soon as it stops swinging (Fig. 644). For conveniencein using hang the cord on a board as shown in Fig. 130. Whenthe cord hangs exactly on the line or at the apex of the notch theedge of the board will be vertical, A long board will give a more accurate test than a short one inmost cases, just as a longplane will make a straighteredge than a short plane, forthe long board will bridgeover the irregularities ofthe surface to be example, to take an ex-aggerated case, the postplumbed as at a (Fig. 645)is vertical, taken as awhole;
