[sarcasm] Does Schonstedt make geiger counters? [/sarcasm]

More seriously, it seems likely the rods were surplus, and I wonder what they were originally used for.

@bill93 I always thought they might have been drill steel or something like that left over from the massive building effort to create the three plants.?ÿ Next time I'm working there I'll take measurements and photos.

@firestix

Iƒ??m way late to this party. But Iƒ??d be setting iron rods in the road. Nails are not permanent enough, IMO.

With the newer battery concrete drills all property corners are caps, in pavement, concrete, rock, it's SOP at this point.

At times I would rent core drills and a generator to set points, now that isn't necessary.
