I'm not a huge fan of such a thing. The exception might be for a construction project where you know the corner will get knocked out and its just the...
I think the point I was trying to make, although my words probably did a poor job of it, is in this case, 13 feet is too much. How do we know if its ...
I'd probably ignore the corner. If there were other errors in this subdivision, I'd probably use it but if everything else fits within a few tenths l...
Does Mr. Quickclose work for the realators, Hookem, Fleecem and Screwem?
Most the surveys I do would be in that area. Several years ago I gave a short talk to the McDonough County Historical Society about the Military Tract...
What was the weight limit on that bridge?I'm not sure of what it was posted at, but I think it was 4 tons and the concrete truck was full.
I agree, the 1/2 is one half of a link. I see that done all the time in my area, although it might be worded a little different.

Jeff Lucas is always talking about how our profession is often seen in a negative way at times by the public. Talking might not be the right word for...
Wish I had some great advice. We were also longtime LDD users. I came into work one day and decided I was no longer going to use LDD and just jumped...
A couple of things we can all agree on. We aren't the only ones that are allowed to measure. Does someone cutting a 2x4 have to call me to measure the...
Dan, don't quote me on these number, I'm going by memory, but it seems like the numbers I saw thrown around was $50 to $70 an hour depending on the po...
I'm from Illinois and was a witness to the circus we had over the last couple of years. I think, but am not sure, the problem went away. We will see...
Weird, I just checked into the board and my GPS is working but only 7 sats. I don't know if its my system or what? It about 2.20pm in western Illino...
I'm sorry, explain to me again what you did to the neighbor lady?If its like Illinois, it will be resolved quickly. Today is 3/30/15 so in Illinois i...
ProbesA couple of things you have going for you that we don't in Illinois. First off, the original monuments were almost always a post in a sod mound....
Maybe on very rare occasions. Say during construction the monument gets knocked out and you know if you reset it will get knocked out again, but I al...
The ones I did we actually did a boundary survey and set pins. The one I did most recent they put in the entire property except a few acres the kept ...
