How did they level/plumb these street light poles and keep them floated during pour?

You mean like use a host site for the image like we used to do?

Must been something wrong at time you tried? I just posted an image by copy/paste like I normally do since this site started with the current forum software.

Or maybe your image was too large or an unsupported file type?
 
I worked for a company once where they subcontracted out to a company to put them up for us. It is a lot of work and you need special equipment, and preferably several bodies. The bases were already done. They apparently were not required to make them plumb because they looked awful when they were done and gone. I made up a piece of wood that I could center on the top with a hole in the center. I dropped a plum bob down inside the pole the entire length to the handhole opening. I measured through the handhole and adjusted with the leveling nuts. The pole protected the plumb bob from the wind and I was able to adjust them all by myself with a bucket truck. It was a pain, but it was done.
