Results are in the 0.2° margin

How long did the calibration take?

I'll let you know when we've tested it. We currently use the printed cube on a tripod as tool but this tool should be easier to work with. We'll see what it brings.

Did this get tested in the end?
Recently lost most of a surveying trip to calibration fuckery - so have become invested in an easy trick
