Hi everyone..

I was wondering if someone has a good Flagstone hatch pattern that they could send me in an acad format - 2004.

Here is a picture of the flagstone area in the back yard.

Interesting boundary BTW...Here's one of the cartoons I found down at the bottom of a heavy brushed slope..

I cut the LS # out so as not to embarass the guy who needs to understand how to recognized a boundary corner. The interesting thing about that pipe is the impression that the now missing tag left in the concrete when it was first set. The nail holding the tag in *may* have just rusted out and the tag eventually just fell off (??) Maybe it was vandalized, who knows? I am pretty sure that the number was either RE 1216 or LS 2850. Both of thos individuals worked the area and are shown on CR. We found LS 2850 about 80 feet NW of the pipe. That was the closing call I needed to find for the deed I am surveying. He was about 20 feet higher in elevation and was also pincushioned by an uncapped rebar that was online to one of the deed angle points and 0.18' offset from the LS 2850 pipe. We didnt get a picture of that cartoon.

The 1929 record map calls for a 2 inch IP 23.15' from the pipe missing the tag. We found that and the dimension to the pipe is 23.09'. The original corner pipe was an open one, so shooting the center sounded like a good plan for a Sunday morning.

The prefectly fitting rebar (within a tenth that is) of where map math would place the corner from the street control, which is about 60 feet higher and 140 feet east, does have a CR tied to it, but oddly enough, there is no mention on that IP that lost it's tag! The CR also shows a record value to the original tract corner pipe. I guess I better learn how to measure because I just cant get any more that 22.85' from the capped rebar to the original tract pipe!!

Another view of the two..

and the original pipe corner..

Just because guys file a record doesnt mean it's any good..maybe it's close, but if you want to fudge, please go to a candy store.

My dad would take that soil out from around that iron pipe and check it with a real metal detector. More often than not, the tag is laying within a couple feet of that pipe. They don't get up and walk away, they just get lost in the dirt and leaves. JRL

Unless they have been pulled and pocketed... brass tags do not give off much of a signal

Just locate the individual stones and go all 2D polyine on that a@$.
Or, just label it "patio".
Offered in humor.

I agree with JB,

This would just be labeled "stone patio" on my survey.:-)

Back in the day, I was a big time hatch guy, thought it looked snazzy, now, not so much.

How you doing Paul?

You might try these guys:

Hatch Paterns

Or you could always just use Gravel;-)

I'm doing OK Randy. Now!

Last week I pulled 3 12 hr days back to back and well, I'm not used to that much work all at once:) I ended up using a gravel hatch.

Flagstone hatch pattern - Radar

Great link! I added that to faves and can create some different flagstone hatches from the GIF's. A bit of copying and rescaling at different X Y values will give me all the flagstone
hatches I will ever need!

Thanks!!

Paul - Flagstone hatch pattern

Paul,

As Radar mentioned,

I use gravel with a large scale.
