Rehabed a BLM Brass cap yesterday
This is the NE corner of my folks?? place. It had been re-established by Keith Williams in 1973. It has been reset 2 times since then. The 2nd guys noted the cap was oriented incorrectly, but he straightened it back up. In about 2010 the Fiber optic utility hit it somehow while installing a vault about 15 feet away. It broke the cap and shove the mon to the ENE. After tying other monuments, in the area, I dug it out enough to straighten is and repaired the cap with JB Weld ala Pail Harvey and a worm gear hose clamp, and rebuilt the mound and reset the witness post. Don??t tell anyone, but I did it using RTK…. these are some before during and after pics….
(When I was in town getting the JB Weld and worm gear, I also had to stop at DQ for a Blizzard, you know..just so I??d have a stirring stick )
