I have two posts 570 feet apart. I want to create a straight line between the two posts for a fence. I assume there is a "trick" to getting a straight fence line over a long distance, but so far the technique has escaped me. So, how do you do it?
I looked at buying a transit, but the instructions say 200 feet is the maximum distance. I don't think a string stretched tight will work as I'm in a rather windy area. To complicate matters, the line I need to "draw" is on flat ground until the 400 foot mark - at which point it gently slopes down so that the "end point" is about 4 foot lower than the start point.
