I have a good-sized portable gas powered generator as well. I also have wide 'Caution' tape as well as a large supply of many colors of survey and marking ribbons. I have found that using two colors tied on at the same time is MUCH more effective than a single color of any color. The Caution tape is mostly used for boundary marking while the colored marking ribbons are effective at line and object marking.
Let me know if any of this is needed- Doug On Thu, Apr 22, 2010 at 1:09 PM, Dave Camarillo <[email protected]>wrote: > a loud generator is better then no generator... > > > On Thu, Apr 22, 2010 at 11:28 AM, Barton C Massey <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Andrew or Brian or somebody has my generator.
