Thanks. I understand now kimosabe. The transits I'm thinking of don't have that tall tower which allows the scope to flip. I can see why the flipable ones may need double centering.
If I look around to buy one, is it worth the extra bux for a flipable one? Looked at a couple on Amazon, a White for instance, but it isn't flipable and the 20x to 32x ones don't go out beyond 300' according to the reviews but I'd think any scope would go a quarter to half mile or more. One review showed the cross hairs all out of kilter. These are really made for construction but still ought to work.
The county surveyor is supposed to email me the coordinates for the pins around out section at the farm. KDOT has put their survey posts along US hwy 56. I want to replace the fence along the highway and also have a hill/rise to deal with. Since one of their markers is just inside some cedar trees, I have to offset by 6' or so.
Bet you have walked many miles over the years surveying highways marking and staking every hundred feet. Seems like KDOT does multiple surveys. First stakes show up in the ditch by the edge of the highway and then later by the edge of the road and paint marks on the edge, and then they are on the centerline. Then after paving it seems like the centerlines are marked again before prepainting & painting of stripes and lines.
