"Laser levels are a waste of time IMHO. He is talking about distances of several hundreds or thousands of feet. (unless it is a house lot)!"
What are you talking about????? This is about as silly a comment as I've heard.
Laser levels of even a fair quality are acurate to within half an inch at a thousand feet. For under $500 you can have a fairly decent one that's gonna put you withing eighths of an inch at a thousand feet.
Mine was used for $200 and it's within an eighth of an inch at 1,000 feet.
I can go for miles measuring slope by myself by just knowing what the elevation change is at each point.
Are there any profesional surveyors out there that DON'T use a laser level? What about construction crews?? Lake builders???
Don't confuse the cheap $20 piece of junk you get at harbor freight with one of the handiest tools around.
Just mine and most everyone elses HUMBLE OPINION, Eddie
