EngineerSupply adds DuraWheel DuraWheel Digi-PRO Digital to its supply line

EngineerSupply, a leading online distributor of construction equipment, tools and land surveying supplies has added the DuraWheel Digi-PRO digital distance measuring wheel to its already extensive offering of distance measuring wheels.

The DuraWheel Digi-PRO offers a number of benefits over its mechanical counterparts. Unlike mechanical measuring wheels that typically measure in only one unit of measure, the Digi-PRO's digital counter allows the user to convert to different units of measure on the fly — feet, feet/inches, feet/tenths, meters, meters/centimeters, meters/decimeter, yards and yards/inches. The wheel also boasts an auto shut-off feature, a trigger brake, sealed roller bearings, a folding handle and a carrying case. These features make the Digi-PRO an ideal choice for general construction, property appraisals, paving, commercial roofing, civil engineering and buildings and grounds maintenance.

EngineerSupply is a factory-authorized dealer for the complete line of DuraWheel distance measuring wheels.

Being first with a winners attitude

I realize it seems almost everyone has an opinion these days. I'd like to mention something less of an opinion but more of what our Country needs right now. We need more people willing to accept responsibility for their own actions within the work place and within our governing bodies. A guy I used to play ball with in High School had the attitude we as Americans now need to exhibit. During an inning change he would run out onto the field and run right in front of the other teams pitcher that was coming off the field. He would be out onto the field crossing paths with the pitcher before the other team had even gotten off the field. He wanted to show that he and his team was first, and willing to give the effort to get out there first and win. This attitude of being first carried my friend all the way to the minor leagues which is quite an accomplishment. As American workers in the workplace I feel we can do the same thing. We can jump out there and admit to our employers and co-workers when we've made a mistake and do it before they can point it out and promote the idea that we're responsible and giving a little more effort than what most think is the requirement.

Surveying Tripod Education

The model shown is a DUAL clamp tripod……that happens to have 1 quick clamp at the top, and a screw clamp (wing nut) at the bottom. Very secure tripod since the user clamps BOTH top clamps and bottom clamps……legs wont loosen and drop your expensive instrument. I recommend a Dual-Clamp tripod for Total Stations, GPS Instruments, and Robotics Instruments since they all have some weight to them. Auto Levels and Transits and Lasers you'd be okay with a Single Clamp tripod. Some Dual Clamp tripods use screw clamps at top AND bottom. Some use Quick Clamps at top AND bottom. Some have a quick clamp AND screw clamp. This is pretty much the combinations I have seen. The screw clamp is most tight and secure. The quick clamp is a lever with a cam type of clamp that gets tight when you flip the lever.

Single Clamp tripods have clamps only at top , or only at bottom. Some have only screw clamp, some only have quick clamp.

 

Example of Various Types of Tripods

Single Clamp tripod with screw type only (only at top, nothing at bottom)

http://www.engineersupply.com/crain-tri-max-standard-screw-clamp-tripod-90551.aspx

Dual Clamp with both quick and screw type

http://www.engineersupply.com/crain-tri-max-standard-dual-clamp-tripod-90553.aspx

Single Clamp with quick type clamp ONLY  (for quick setups, lighter instruments)

http://www.engineersupply.com/Seco-Heavy-Duty-Quick-Clamp-Aluminum-Tripod-5301-30-ORG.aspx

http://www.engineersupply.com/crain-tri-max-standard-quick-clamp-tripod-90550.aspx

 Then you have "Elevator Tripods" that have a crank handle that raise/lower the head

http://www.engineersupply.com/cst-berger-extra-long-machine-control-tripod-60-mcte.aspx

These are special application tripods, and some users are using them for rotary laser height adjustment.

Presco Roll Flagging Best Flagging Available

Presco Roll Flagging is the best rolling flagging available due to how long it lasts. It outlasts other brands with how long the color holds before fading, it stretches well and ties well. You won't go wrong with Presco "Texas Roll Flagging". When I was an Instrument Man on a Surveying Crew I was taught to wrap wood stakes by using both hands wrapping in opposite directions, while stretching and over-lapping the flagging all at the same time. After tying a secure knot, some length is left over on the ends to make the flagged stake visible. The method makes for a very tight and durable flagged stake. The over-lapping and stretching avoids the flagging from loosening later and sliding down the stake. If done properly the flagging will be so tight it would need to be cut off of the stake using a knife or cutter of some type.

We added the Apache Machine Control Product Line

We added the Apache Machine Control Product Line to our selection of machine control products. If you dont know anything about machine control, in a nutshell it's controlling a machine! Funny right? It's used by heavy construction firms that operate heavy equipment such as bull dozers and trackhoes for site prep. Site preparation professionals use our machine control laser detectors to grade construction sites prior to construction. Rotary Laser levels are set up to beam across a construction site, while machine control detectors are mounted to the blades of dozers, and arms of trackhoes. The grading contractor can read the blueprints (aka construction documents) to see if there is cut or fill needed at any location of the construction site. With machine control detectors the dozer operator will know if s/he is above or below grade. Hence the term "Machine Control". While we only sell the 2D machine control products, there is a more advanced subject and system and that is of 3D where the sensors detect X Y , and Z coordinates for elevation. 3D systems are expensive and not normally needed except for specialized applications. 2D systems that we represent are commonly used on many construction sites all over the world.

Underground Utility Locators like Pipe and Cable Locators

Underground Utility Locators like Pipe and Cable Locators are extremely useful tools to help save time, and lives. Being able to locate underground utilities accurately is obviously a safety issue.

High voltage power lines are the first we think about when dealing with safety.

Pocket Scales are very Handy

Pocket scales are very handy to have around on the job. Instead of carrying a regular drafting scale like the one you used in drafting class or the one laying on your desk, try a pocket scale.

Pacific Laser Systems PLS180 System (PLS-60522)

If you're interested in Laser Level Reviews, the Pacific Laser Systems PLS180 System (PLS-60522) is one of the best and most useful laser levels we have seen in a long time. With its 180-degree sweep it has a vertical and horizontal beam. The PLS lasers have a tough case and feel like a solid tool in your hand and not like something that will break only after a few uses. The PLS 180 will be a solid tool in your toolbox for many years. It'll pay for itself over and over as you'll find new uses for it each week. We recommend you buy the system model since it includes the laser detector. It's best to buy a detector up front since you'll need it for outdoor use sooner or later. To date we have yet to see a PLS 180 get returned.
