Default Do You Use A Level?

When you put up shelves or pictures on the wall, do you use a level to get them level or do you just wing it? I can pretty much guess, but I've found a level invaluable to truly get the stuff leveled up.

I use a level. Last thing I want is something falling off.

Yes always. I can not even draw a straight line with a ruler but I can manage to hang something with a level and make it straight. Now if that could only work when I am painting rooms around here.

I use a level. Every time I don't what ever it is I am hanging or building ends up looking horrible. When I am up close to something I can't tell if it is straight or not.

I bought a level but it was too big to keep around. I put it in the shed and forgot about it. I just eye everything, if I am too close to tell I will have a friend stand back and tell me when it is straight.

My husband does all the hanging and stuff like that around here, but I think he usually uses a level. That's why I'm not allowed to hang anything - I wing it and it looks all cockeyed, lol.
