Back in '05 we'd manually shim every guide rail joint, but now I just use a laser alignment tool from the pit to the overhead.

Is the old-school hands-on method still better for training new mechanics, or does the tech save enough time on a 20-floor job to be worth the upfront cost?

Anna_Ross19 is right, you need that shim feel before the laser saves a day.

Laser for speed, but start them on the shims.
