Here's a drawing of an ultra light-weight level I made. I laid it out on a plastic margarine tub top. I drew two 30-60-90 degree triangles side by side and cut it out with an x-acto knife and ruler. I punched a hole in the middle. I hung it up on a line and checked that it hung level. I shaved minute bits of weight off the heavier side with a block sander. Once it was level, I hung it from the ridge line with a bread twistie tie.

It shows me what's level and also gives me the 30 degree angle of the suspension lines. It weighs virtually nothing and packs right up with the hammock. Plus, it's fun to watch it dance in the wind. Happy hanging!
