Central Florida Surveyors Turn To Stakemill As Their Supplier Closes Down

http://www.surveystakes.com/
August 2011 – Stakemill has seen again a stake supplier not make it in this slow economy. We had mentioned in an earlier post about their business model and how a few wisely positioned words could lead their customers astray. Stakemill has been cutting wood stakes since the mid 70′s and boy have things changed. We all are looking for newer methods, production equipment and streamlining the entire operation, but to base our business model on a short-lived product would be like building a business around the current number one song on the radio, short-lived.


Stakemill welcomes these Central Florida Land Surveyors, Road Builders, Government Agencies and Private Businesses that are in need of a quality stake at a competitive price from an established supplier. See our website for complete product details.

Magnetic Locators: an inside look

Order Dunham & Morrow Locators at STAKEMILL.com DML2000-XR
Magnetic Locators: an inside look

All magnetic locators operate on the same basic principle; two fluxgate magnetometer sensors, securely mounted inside a rigid sensor support tube, measure the local magnetic field. These two-magnetometer sensors are vector sensors. Mounted 20” apart, each measures the average magnetic field component along their sensitive axis, or the magnetic field component along the longitudinal axis of the sensor tube.

To work properly, the magnetometer sensors are aligned opposing so the magnetic field measured by one sensor is the negative of the magnetic field measured by the other. The locator then sums the output of the two sensors and cancels any field common to both, such as the Earth’s Magnetic Field, and leaves only the differential magnetic field.

The differential magnetic field, or the magnetic field detected by one sensor and not the other, is the magnetic field of interest and hopefully represents the magnetic field of your target and not the field of your pocketknife, watch or the steel arch support in your shoes. The drawing on the right shows the construction of a typical magnetic locator and the location of the two sensing elements.

In the field, great performance goes hand-in-hand with proper operation. When searching for survey benchmarks or underground ferrous targets the magnetic locator should be held in vertically or in a near vertical position. In this position the instrument audio output is facing the operator and the controls are readily accessible.

To pinpoint your target, rotate the instrument to the vertical and use and "X" or crossing pattern. The audio output will peak directly over your target. It's that easy!

How do your stakes measure up?


STAKEMILL - How do your lath stakes measure up against Stakemill's? We have seen the thin 3/8" pine stakes from Plant City that frustrate so many of you and the stakes that have nothing defective pulled out from a supplier on Nebraska Avenue in Tampa. If it is one thing we have learned in 30 years of stake production is that you offer the customer the best product at a fair price and you will come out on top. We have seen numerous stake producers close their doors that offered low quality products more times than we have seen them continue to operate.


Our pine lath measures a full 1/2" thick and every stake is usable, if you buy 3/8" lath you are getting a third less wood, you should be getting it for a third less than our price. FEEL LIKE YOU ARE GETTING RIPPED OFF? You would not pay the same money for half a tank of gas and only accept a third of a tank of gas would you?
Feel like you are getting ripped off?
