I am preparing a slide show for a chapter meeting and am in need of some of the worst pin cushion pics you have.
If you have them please post them for me to use.

it's hard to beat the one on this recent thread:

Licensed Land Surveyor
Finger Lakes Region, Upstate New York
I already have that saved. I am looking for more, you might say a PLETHORA. And, yes I do know what a plethora is.

At another location one of these guys also politely told another surveyor in town that he wasnt accepting his cap by 0.13ft.
The one set with a Javad is correct....
(Grin)

the angle iron was the called monument. Two of the pipes are not of public record.....
I had a guy come after and set Hilti nails
Turned him into the board and after many years they took his license
There are three monuments for this corner.?ÿ ?ÿ It wasn't relevant to my survey except that we shared the line.?ÿ I held the Concrete as it fit three others on the same line.?ÿ I have no explanation about the pins....or the Bud
?ÿ
The capped pipe and the 5/8" rebar are almost touching. The point of the nail is on the rebar.
One of my favorites, under a rhododendron where it was almost impossible to take this photo but somehow they drove a rebar and cap.?ÿ
Because 2 corners aren't enough.
the square hole is whats left of the rotted stake, clump of grass removed from the hole below the concrete.
Stone monument set in the late 1800's.?ÿ Some one needs to buy a shovel.
I guess the pipe monument isn't good enough.
Stone monument set as part of an 1868 subdivision, found and called for as the corner on the 1925 re-subdivision.
Ah my personal favorite a tack in a capped rebar
If they arent of record, and have no LS number, why would this be a pincushion? Only the angle iron has any meaning or value in that case.

The cover picture on the Evergreen Surveyor from 2010 is the best pincushion I have ever seen.
?ÿ
Terrible picture, but the monuments were set by the same company.
Ran into the same thing as well...
I won't post the ones I've found that our guys did. Three irons, three N&Ds.
Here are a few I've come across in the past year or so.
In the second pic, the guys setting the 5/8" red cap actually took a chunk out of the 1/2" yellow cap to "get it in the right spot."
Last pic, both irons were set by the same company.
?ÿ
I found these today, two different corners, same job site. In the second photo, the capped pipe purports to be a 1/16th corner. I have a feeling some more searching is going to be in order. This project is going to be fun...
