I thought I might find a bubble jig useful, maybe watching the bubble will help keep my hands steady. I already had a digital angle gauge, so I added a bubble level on top.

The gold colored hinge is a jewelry box hinge, the bubble is from Amazon. A drop of superglue holds it together.

I normally grind on a vertical platen, but most people tilt their platen about 45 degrees so the bubble is easier to watch.
 
Hilarious. I have one of those digital angle gauges. I use it to set up my table saw to cut staves when I am making drums. Your idea never occurred to me! Wish you posted this before I bought my bubble jig! Oh well, I am happy with my oem bubble jig.
