Abstract:
1. An apparatus enabling inclination measurements of irregular surfaces comprising: a) a retaining end at least partially made of a substantially flexible material adapted to temporarily hold a device equipped with an inclinometer of different dimensions; and b) a supporting end, fixed to the retaining end, conformed to abut an irregular surface, wherein the supporting end has an upper and lower surface; the upper surface defining a substantially flat surface and relatively parallel to an at least one flat portion of the lower surface from which a measure of inclination is sought and the lower surface having an arcuate profile formed therethrough and positioned between a first and second flat portion whereby the apparatus enables the device equipped with an inclinometer to measure inclination of an irregular surface having a protrusion while moving the apparatus along the protrusion therein the arcuate profile of the lower surface.
