Wow, Thanks a lot for the excellent information. I'll be back for more questions. Do you have an AIM handle or Email? Thanks

Ah...That worked. Thanks everyone.

Ok, thanks. Let me know asap because I need to finish this. :)

Hi, Sorry I couldn't reply faster, I was out of town. What is the difference between the following: Automatic Levels AL8-22 22X 200 feet Within 1/16" @ 100 feet http://www.davidwhite.com/LOW-RES/8922.jpg and http://www.davidwhite.com/LOW-RES/47-4700.jpg Thank you

Hi, I need to scale a print job 1:30, 1:40, or 1:50. I can't get any of the scales to work. It's always WAY too big on paper. Im thinking maybe my units are messed up or not setup. How do I make it where 1" = 30, 40, or 50 feet on paper? I need it to fit on a Letter size paper...

Hi, im new to the forums. I was wondering how people make such descriptive site plans? Does the engineer really draw every single line with that much accuracy? How does he/she know where rocks and trees lie? What are some addons to Autocad that help in the siteplan making process? I would...
