Just bought one of those string levels based on your video, gonna save me lots of time using straight edge and pegs.
man thats someones house. i thought it was apark at first. that place is nice
great video on the basics of leveling thanks for sharing
Great video! After you get your first level reading take off the line level and turn it around and remount it. If you're still level then your line level is accurate. This trick works on any type of spirit level.
That's a great tip.
Excellent demo. I need it for my patio. My dad taught me how to use a clear (see through) hose with water to mark level. But your method is much easier and more accurate.
It's not more accurate than water, less accurate if anything, but definitely easier :)
Excellent summary. Well done.
you never mentioned the shorter stake by the first stake , i guess its to anchor the string solid ? Great video thanks for posting , helped me out alot .
Great video, I'll be leveling the ground for an above ground pool this video add alot of insite to using a string level. Thank you
Me too, in spring :) In fact I'm thinking to make a 4 inch concrete slab to sit it on.
Why was the ground stake important? TUNE IN NEXT WEEK!
Thank you for sharing this video
Nice job.
Very useful info.
Brilliant
How do check building structure ?
Why do you do 4” above the highest ground level? Why not just start flat on the ground?
he said he was going to explain why later but he never did :(
I believe 4" is what you need for skating. So as he said in the video this represents your water level. 4" on one side and 17" on the other.
That’s great and all but how do you dig around the level lines with machines?
You always go a few feet past where you need to dig.
Es confiable este método para nivelar? Saludos!
What string to use to have the least amount of sag? thanks.
Masonry string works well.
Go to your home center to the measuring/marking aisle. They will have high-visibility nylon string specifically for this purpose. Look up Essential Craftsman on TH-cam, and watch his vid on tying of a string line. It'll be guitar-string taut.
SO with that much water the rink will never freeze. How do you raise the level of the ground a bit so you can reduce the amount of water? Plywood?
To use less water surely you'd want to dig out the high ground, you can't raise the lower ground.
What's the point of checking the diagonals?
hes said because you can get hills and valleys in the middle of the rink
Try using level hose
i wondered why use a line level when u got a laser right there but it doesnt go far enough? :) and how do you keep the water in the rink plastic?
He is showing different ways of measuring. He has another video where he shows how to use the laser level. Also you need to put a liner down after making the plastic rink.
I used to work for this one company, and the Foreman never trusted string levels. He would rather use a straight edge with a 4 foot level on top smh...
craydul can’t really disagree with him. A laser transit is the way to go. Be really careful with very tight strings if you need to use a line level. Also keep the stretches short.
I don't blame him either. The issue with bubble levels is that the bubble is smaller than the lines, and unless you look at the aperature dead square from the same reference perspetive, you're going to be off. For short runs, i'd say a bubble level is ok, but when you start getting into 10, 20,30, 40+ foot runs, that few degrees of error and reading error gets magnefied, and your layout is wrong.
For long runs, a laser is where it's at. for short runs, bubble level is acceptable. i also use a water level for when i have to project a line beyond an obstruction to the laser. I work with piers and pilings quite often and need to transfer level marks quickly.
That rink is way to small
Most don't know, that water level is how we know the Earth isn't a sphere, but a motionless flat plain. An ancient water level method would be just as accurate as the laser. You could even calibrate the laser, because water is that accurate at reveling level. And could care less about a theory of gravity.
but if the world was flat, the string wouldnt curve, wouldnt need a level then either since everything would be flat.
Nonya Bizness talk about not noticing the sarcasm.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡
Anybody else notice at 1:00 when he first tells us about "a 20 by 46 standard rink" how it seems that he was annoyed and swatting a bug on the back of his head. Then, the second time he tells us about it at 2:14 that it seems like his most hated nemesis just spat in his grandmothers face behind camera. He even does this underbite that reminds me of when my dad was angry at us kids but we were in front of people and as soon as they turned their heads we would get a glaring look with this EXACT same underbite that said, "WAIT TILL WERE AWAY FROM THE PUBLICS EYES!!!" HAHAHA!!! Maybe it's just me but the man seems like a VERY angry individual that needs some help and maybe a little bit of medication. He could be a HUGE teddy bear in real life...idk...but I'm sure his kids would admit otherwise...away from the public's view at least. Lol. I know those eyes too well. Sorry for the run-on sentences peeps.
I would have beat you in front of everybody so you knew next time you were not going to get away with being a brat in public because you thought nothing was going to happen to you.
This is a bizarre comment
Edit: this is a bizarre thread
An interesting psychological analysis. of you as much as of the video guy ;)
