    Before laser levels we used a long clear water hose to install overhead ocranes, unlike laser levels you could go around corners, ironically your quality check of the laser level was using an really old times technique. It good to see another video thanks 👍.

      I used to use a hose in my youth. I'm spoiling myself with the laser. 😜

    You should try to angle grade the soil outside by the GH Frame to shed ground/surface water away from the frame and also invest in a rainwater catchment system by installing lightweight gutters to catch the rainwater off of your GH Fabric on the sides, you can control up to 90% of what can even get inside the GH from under the floor and have the added benefit of usable irrigation water. I Have two 1500 water tanks that i use to pump water that is caught in 55 gallon barrels into and use the water directly in every other day watering of plants thru drip tape to my long rows of plant pots. Although i gave up on aquaculture because of the fish food prices, i still have large reserves of free water so i can take a large percentage of pressure off of my freshwater wells.

      For us, it's just cheaper to use well water vs installing rain catchment systems. Once we dig a few feet down, we usually hit bedrock or boulders that are too large to move. When I built the greenhouse, I priced out rain catchment and I could drill a few wells for the same cost, plus I don't have to worry about decontaminating the rain water.
