Vertical
As far as the UK is concerned, 'I could not eat another thing, I am plum full." This is in reference to the concept of "plumb", i.e. absolutely vertical. Any deviation from plumb is not absolutely vertical. In this respect, if one is "plumb full" it would imply that that the person is "completely full", with no deviation from the absolute term "full". When you consider a container of fixed volume, it is either full or it is not full so by analogy, "plumb full" would imply that the container (generally the stomach) is full, with no room for any more. Realistically, the term cannot be completely true since the stomach is somewhat elastic so saying you (or something) is "plumb full" is really just a way to emphasize the fullness.

It is not known who invented the plumb-line or plumb-bob; there is evidence that it has been in use since biblical times and archaeologists haveÊunearthed what they think are plumb gaugingÊtoolsÊin Ancient Egypt.
Use of a plumb bob a level used on plumb rather then horizontal
Use a plumb line.
Plumb line testThis is a quick visual check to see if the spine is straight. In scoliosis, the plumb line will fall to the left or right of the spine instead of through the middle of the buttocks. Plumb line dropped from the prominent vertebra of C7 (vertebra prominence) measures the decompensation of the thorax over the pelvis. The distance from the vertical plumb line to the gluteal cleft is measured in centimeter and is recorded along with the direction of deviation. If there is cervical or cervico-thoracic curve, the plumb should fall from the occipital protuberance (inion).
The plumb line is a vertical straight line.
You're referring to the word 'plumb' - as in plumb line.
A place to hang the line.
Plumb-lines were traditionally made from materials such as lead, brass, or iron. These materials were chosen for their density and durability, allowing the plumb-line to hang straight and true for accurate measurements.
II Samuel 8:2 is the account that you are referring to, but the mention of a plumb-line is not in this passage. The only passage in scripture that mentions a plumb-line is in Amos 7:7-8. A plumb-line is used for vertical alignment. David used a chord , or rope as a measuring tool to separate out a third to one half of the Moabites.
A plumb bob is a weighted instrument used in construction and carpentry to create a vertical reference line. It helps ensure that structures are built accurately and in alignment with a true vertical.
