I started a thread about this at SB MX site, having not seen the discussion here about the micro levelers. Here is a reply from Dan Bisque:
PRejto:
I'm in the process of building a concrete base
The top surface of a properly mixed and proprely floated concrete pier will be level. Make sure your concrete person clearly understands this goal before the job is started.
PRejto:
. My question concerns the amount of error (hopefully none, but I know that's impossible) that is workable at the pier/mount interface.
A Software Bisque pier mounted to the top of a horizontal pier surface should be sufficiently level so that no adjustments or modifications are necessary for optimal performance.
PRejto:
Does the MX mount have the same sort of micro-levelers as the ME (and same tolerances of 3 mm)?
No. We've had to repair too many micro levelers on Paramount MEs caused by misuse and minunderstanding of how this system works that microlevelers were intentionally left out of the MX design.
Note that an "absolute horizontal orientation" of the mount's base is not critical to the Paramount ME or Paramount MX's performance. In the case of level, "close enough" is generally good enough.
