Default Angle meter

Hi all,
Just following a recommendation from a forum subscriber.

I'm using this Angle Meter, borrowed from my next door neighbor (and pretty much ruined by now) to check my brick angles as I place them. I've been working without shims, except for the occasional time when I tamp the bricks down too far while setting them, then I use the shim as a wedge to boost it back up again.

By this method, at least so far, I'm able to hand butter the bricks with mortar and do away with a grout bag. It works really well.

I have no idea where to buy something like this. My neighbor can't remember where he bought it. Try Google????
