I am in the process of surveying the boundary of a Midstate Electric Co-operative substation in the northeast corner of Sunriver.
The contract states that the 3 major corners must be set in concrete. One was not as stable as I would like as the bottom of
the existing 30" rebar was bottomed out on bedrock. I referenced it, removed and used my trusty Bosch hammer drill to drill in the
new rebar before I encased in concrete.
This is a great project because it is a quite spot and I can see the whole site from one control station.
Nice. BTW, no such thing as a two bit rebar anymore, the last pointed ones I bought were $4.50 each.

Roughly $1.50 these days.
That looks like work.

I guess if I was setting hundreds a year I might find a less expensive source, not worth saving even $3 a stick when I probably only set 50 or so a year, I have better things to do with my billable time. These last ones were delivered to my doorstep, neatly bundled in groups of 10...

Damn, only 50 a year. I set 50 a week most of the time.They cost 0.50 Cent a foot here.

Scott,
What type of stones are those circling the marker?
It looks like a rock that I found at my feet once while set-up on my first job surveying in the Ozarks. Calciferrous Limestone from some ancient seabed that rose with the Ozarks. It was loaded with tiny sea fossils with the dimensions only 6x4x3 inches I still have it and it was one of the coolest rocks ever found. I thought it was a rare find for the Ozarks where I was setup deep forest.
