when taking RTK data collection, RECORD your raw data, not just the vectors. this gives the added versatility of importing CORS/RINEX with precise ephemeris and removing those pesky and often small uncertainties

If your raw data does not record your act of setting monuments, side shot them or whatever it takes for your raw data to make a record of what your did.

Carpenters measure twice and cut once. Surveyors just keep measuring and checking.

Use ear & eye protection when using the chain saw. The world has enough deaf & blind surveyors. Also chaps & gloves.

Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.

Star Tron is one of many products use as an additive to gasoline to make it last and to keep your engine from gumming up from what is left of the gas as it evaporates and/or leaves residue inside the tank and fuel lines and filters.
I use SeaFoam :good:

This is Star Tron. Sea Foam is good too. But, I can run Star Tron, and actually hear the motor start running better. It's an enzyme. I really like it.

I thought I put this under "Tips and Tricks". Must be the first "Glitch". Ah, so what? I'm going to the river with the kids.

You did put it there but the Tips & tricks forum is an off-topic forum.

Don't leave chain saw in sun when you just used it, it could vapor lock next time you try to run it.
