We machine parts to a tolerance of .0005". This results in a working accuracy of .001" or better in 10ft.

If you're working on a 30ft column, you can expect accuracy of .000-.003" top to bottom.

As with any instrument for measuring vertical accuracy, the quality of your steel is important. If your steel isn't good, clean and straight, this may effect your readings.

The Bazooka Bob is fully adjustable from 6ft. 6in to 10ft. This meets the 10ft AISC standard for calculating plumb

Simply. No. The Bazooka Bob does not need regular calibration. When it leaves our facility, it is calibrated to an accuracy of .001" or better, in 10ft. 

Barring damage or, somebody taking the Bazooka Bob apart, there is virtually nothing to go wrong with it.

Many contractors will send us their Bazooka Bobs after completing jobs to re-check the calibration, for peace-of-mind. We're happy to do this, free of charge. You only pay return shipping. Send us a label in the box and pay nothing

If you ever have questions regarding the accuracy of the Bazooka Bob, please call us, we're always happy to discuss it. Just this author's experience but... In the 30+ years I've been with this company, never once has the Bazooka Bob been at fault in a field issue. Usually it's an out of calibration laser used to compare readings or.... an erector used a bubble-level....

No. Just NO. You can't ever expect a high degree of accuracy from a bubble

Each slash is 1/8". The longest mark is the center "plumb" mark. You may also notice a small dot on the gauge. That's an offset mark for when you're using one of the attachments.
