I don't know if you could see it in the picture but the far corner was set Wednesday evening. I took these pictures yesterday morning before the survey crew showed up.
Survey crew?
Yup, survey crew. I pointed out that I had found the pin they couldn't. They let me know that old plat and the old pin was in the wrong place.
In this photo look at the base of the tree. That yellow dillywhacker is the property pin in the right place. If you look over to the last hole that I'd dug you'll see a wood stake. That stake is where the old property pin resides.
So my fence was over into the neighbor's by nine to ten feet. It was also into the property about five feet.
To make it right. Have to make it right, not like there's another option, I had to pull the posts. This morning I'll redo the radius modifying it hopefully to where no one will ever know except us, you and me.
When you look at the fact that I bent severely four posts, wasted a yard of concrete, half day's labor installing the first time and another half moving it. That's a pain. But not near as painfull as driving by and seeing a mess from now on.
Here's a good shot of the bucket I made for the tractor to replace the wheelbarrows. It holds a half yard of concrete and is pretty well splash resistant. It allows me to pour the concrete in the holes without much hassle. Love that "not much hassle." In a fenceman's life property pins can do enough of that. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
Like most of my tools it's able to many tasks. Here it's doing post pulling one oh one quite nicely thank you.
