Finally got my fit-up time down on those 24-inch flanges

Used to take me a full hour to get them tacked up square. Started using a simple laser level my buddy lent me, and now I'm done in under 20 minutes. Anyone have a better method for checking alignment on big pipe?

Try a cheap magnetic digital level next time.

That's a huge time save, going from an hour to 20 minutes is solid. Honestly for a tack weld, is perfect squareness that critical? I get it for the final weld but for just holding it, close is usually good enough. Paul117's digital level idea seems like overkill for a fit-up. You're already crushing it with the laser.
