A target and plumbing system includes a reflective target. A self-leveling plumb line laser pointer emits a plumb line laser beam having a pathway that is in a vertical direction where the vertical direction is substantially parallel to a gravitational direction. A holding device includes a first holding element and a second holding element. A positioning device includes a first positioning element and a second positioning element where the holding device is connected to the positioning device, the self-leveling plumb line laser pointer is connected to the first positioning element, and the first positioning element is movable with respect to the second positioning element. The holding device is connected to the first positioning element, the second positioning element is a platform including an open space that defines a horizontal two-dimensional area, and the first positioning element is movable with respect to the open space.
