Great video! So helpful for new Surveyors! Any tips for centering the head over the pin? One teacher I had would drop or raise one leg the shift in the appropriate direction.
Are you referring to total station setup looking through the optical plummet at the control point? If so, a total station setup video is already underway!
I have an interest in vintage instruments. Ever consider doing a video series on how things used to be done? Like, say, best practices and accuracy of a 1 minute theodolite, chaining old school, etc?
@@bwhog From a bandwidth standpoint, I’m already turning out videos much slower than I’d like, so I’ll probably stick to more current topic sets. Fun though. In the survey room ASU’s school of construction there are a bunch of old military theodolites in the green “tank ordinance” sleeve.
By far the best proper usage of a builder's level. Thank you!
Thank you for the great feedback!
Excellent. Could you do a video (or series) detailing best practices for traversing control and/or level looping control.
Both of these are in the pipeline, keep an eye out!
Awsome video, very easy to understand and quick to the point! Thank you for making this ^^
Thanks for watching!
I love this move it really teaches me to my understanding
Excellent from the pearl of Africa
Genius video! Exactly what the industry needs! Thank you!!
I love how you show why not to grab the tripod. I would probably would do that if I were using the contractors Level.
I was glad I could highlight what it does to the bubble level to better explain how far outside of level readings would be if taken in that state.
Excellent video!

@@leansurvey8212 I have a Wild T2 graduated in mils. Not my favorite, both because of that and the inverting telescope.
Simple and effective. I've seen so called "professional land surveyors" fiddle around for 5-10 minutes just leveling an instrument...smh.
Agreed, this should be a twenty second process when performed without the unnecessary steps often introduced to instrument setup.
You didn't stop them and call for an in-field training session so you could straighten them out? How many times did you "see so called pros" do this?
Need to know how to read leveling staff
Thanks a lot
Nice
