Water level

What happens here

It is crucial to remove all air bubbles from the clear tubing, as they can significantly affect the accuracy of the water level. To do this, place one end of the water-filled tubing into a bucket of water and let the other end drain onto the ground. This creates a siphon effect that pulls out air bubbles. Once no more bubbles are visible, pinch or plug the end that was draining onto the ground, then lift both ends. The water will settle.

Goal: Ensure the water level is free of air bubbles for accuracy

Tools and materials

  • Bucket Beech's — To hold one end of the tubing and provide a reservoir for siphoning
  • Clear Tubing — The primary tool for leveling
  • Water Tap water — To fill the bucket for bubble removal

So, hold them up. It doesn't matter the
