Level LineA long clear plastic tubing is used to create a level line which will be used to set the top level for the floor tiles. The tube is filled with water, on one end a line is marked at the water line. At a different area perhaps several meters away another mark is made (in is a two man process). This two independent marks will be at the same level and measurement can be made from this point downwards to determine the target level for the tiles. dozer00000
