MUST Have Tool for Mudsill Lay Out

The importance of accurate lay out cannot be overstated in my view. When we get this wrong, it can ruin the flow of the build at the minimum, and cost thousands of dollars and delay the project at the other extreme. Factor in the cost to the subs and life gets tough.
In this video I'll show you how to lay out accurately on a stepped foundation, and do it FAST. The secret weapon is the Stabila LA180L. This laser is made for this type of work and in classic Stabila fashion, its very accurate. Pay the money to buy accuracy, then watch it pay for itself quickly. My review in JLC is below.
The tools I use and recommend acmetools.pxf.io/AwesomeFramers
Please remember that I'm not showing the best way to do anything, but just the method that works well for us. Thanks for watching!
Oh and another takeaway, if you use a drone for commercial work, you need to be part107 certified. Commercial work includes social media like KZfaq if you plan to make an income off of that. I watched a video about this last May and then purchased the Part 107 Course sso.teachable.com/secure/2458... I studied and learned for 1 month and then took my test. I scored a 95%, which is a testament to how good Greg and the crew over there teach. That link will save you $100 off the course and support this channel.

There aren't a lot of people teaching framing out here, and none that go over it in the detail you do. As someone who's trying to improve his trade, your videos are indispensable

The way u explained how to do this was so easy to understand. Those boys are lucky to have someone like u who actually takes time to show them how to do things without screaming at them. 👍

Shoot buddy, that's a really nice tool. You might've sold me. My foundations NEVER look like yours. I'm always out on every jog.. even a square box somehow ends up 1.5" O.O.S....... This would save me so much time!! Best of all, it'd be much easier to do on my own when my guys decided not to show up for work. Thanks pal, keep the gold comin

I like the mechanix, the geometry, the engineering, and the applications, ie; reference points for the contractors standard. I’ve seen it, as the frame layout-determination, in light of the finish work, that applies. In the film industry, we can breeze thru, an accurate replica, w/out having to perfect a whole work, forever. Look at Steven King’s Castle Rock , seas. 1 on Hulu, the big house, w/Sissy Spacek, existed in town, and was duplicated in a film studio, in Devens Mass. 🙊details!

Pulse lasers (line laser) will keep you lined up, square over long distances, plumb, and level better and faster than anything out there. If you plan on buying one, 3 accessories that are critical to use in tandem with it would be a receiver, telescoping pole, and a high precision manual rotation stage. A receiver can detect the laser line in broad sunlight when your eyes cant see the laser line at all and it can detect it a long way away from the laser level. You can plant the receiver on a target point and then rotate your laser level to line up on that point. Or if your laser lines are where you want them but you can't see where the laser line is hitting 30 ft away, you can slowly sweep the receiver until it beeps, mark it at that point, and that tells you where the laser line intersects. A telescoping pole is for moving your laser level up/down so that the horizontal line is at a certain elevation. A high precision manual rotation stage is a device thats normally used in the optical / laser industries. Basically its a platform that you can hook your laser level to by a screw that gives your laser level very fine rotation control to help you line your laser line up on a target point that is a long way away. I bought a $60 one off Walmart website and I can hook my Bosch GLL3-330CG to it and have line up on a target point 55ft away. I haven't tried to find max distance yet but at 55 ft it was easy.

The proper time to make sure the foundation walls are square, is before the walls are actually built. After the footings are poured is the time to set up the lazer or transit to establish the exact wall locations. Of coarse whenever you get a new toy you need to find reasons for using it. lol

Our concrete guys have a tool that allows them to layout all the the corners of a building without ever having to move it. I don't know what it is called or how much it is. They do some good work though.

Bosch laser with the remote base is just as quick and accurate and you can walk to the other end and move the laser instead of needing to set the receiver and tweak it over.

Yep but with much less accuracy. They are great for shorter distances, but can't compete with the tolerances of this laser.

@ghettohey2388 Жыл бұрын

. So at the very first you are manually setting the laser dot at a corner and basically setting your control point yourself then the receiver squares the back line with the laser to the edge, Am I wrong or correct. My question is after setting the back line and taking the receiver to another wall to square the walls/ sill plate lines, how is the receiver doing this. What is the step you have to do before moving the receiver to another wall. And then when you move the receiver to another wall corner how is it squaring. Does the receiver save reference points and you have like reference point 1, 2, 3 and then you chose which reference point you want to square off of. Thats the part Im trying to understand. I guess it would be probably easier having the laser and using it.

They left the receiver where the transmitter had been then manually adjusted until it was perfect

@mikecraftsmancustombuilder3650 Жыл бұрын

It's got a laser that shoots a 180 degree line, and another one that shoots 90 degrees to the first line. If you set it over a control point, you can either manually adjust it until it hits another point, or set the receiver on the second point and make the laser automatically sweep until it finds the point where your receiver is set. In either case, there is no saving of points -- the built in 90 degree laser means you just walk over to the other corner to locate your 90 degree / square line. Hope that makes sense
