What happens here

After cutting the hole, you may need to mark the exact position for the post mount or confirm alignment with other structural elements. Use a chalk line to create straight reference lines and a spirit level to ensure the surface is level or to mark vertical points. While the video quickly shows this, it's crucial for precise placement.

Goal: Confirm placement and alignment of the post mount
