Laser levels
1/2" at 20 feet isn't 1 part in 40. It's 1 part in 480 ;-)
Yeah, I really blew that one. I need more fingers to calculate with...
Lee Valley occasionally sells an inexpensive laser level (when they get
a shipment of them, for about $23 CDN) and they've tested it and found
it to be 1/4" in 100'.
Is it threaded for a tripod? Just curious.
Still, a decent theodolite, positioned at the exact center of the
building, could tell you a lot more about the geometry than a level could.
