ABSTRACT:
A multipurpose tool for gripping an object and determining an orientation of a surface comprises a first arm with a jaw at one end and a grip at an opposite end and a second arm pivotally connected to the first arm about a pivot point. The second arm also has a jaw at one end and a grip at the opposite end. The grips are moveable between an open position for opening the jaws and a closed position for closing the jaws. At least one level vial is mounted on at least one of said arms such that the arm may be placed into engagement with the surface for determining the orientation of the surface.
