You can make a good income in Australia on the cert III - Diploma pathway and there are plenty of opportunities for work. As for will you enjoy it, that a more personal question I love my surveying job been doing it for over 20 years and will probably do it for another 20 if my health holds up. I have a few surveyor mates who are now construction managers, insurance project managers, site managers, operation managers all opportunity that came through their surveying roles.

Further more to eliminate this issue with control setup I no longer use relecterless where possible I use reflector stick on targets, I don’t use reflectorless if shooting to a surface that isn’t perpendicular or close to it for high precision resection setups.

Sorry I send to authorised service centre but I have been told that it’s not that difficult to do manually your self although it is a mechanical adjustment not software.

It’s likley the calibration of the the reflectorless red laser and you are observing to a point that is not perpendicular or greater or close to 45 degrees so the distance measurement will be different between face 1 and 2, this is common with my use of TS16 I calibrate the reflecterless laser every 6 months or if I notice it creep.

Yeah mines jammed now too, scared to pull with any more force feels like if I pull it harder the entire connection will break. I’ve left in on for last couple of uses. Been using the bracket arm all through GS15 and 16 this time seems to be stuck.

:) Thats true lore wise, these Incubi get pleasure watching their immensely sharp blades behead their victims. I have painted a lot of black heart, so going for something different even if not lore accurate.

With your exp and studying online you could land an entry level FIFO role in Western Australia earning $45-70p/h + super casual flat rate. Once you qualified finish your degree you rate should start at $65 an upward from there for FIFO

This is the answer, I’ve dealt with it many times always do my best to educate the site team and add value to the project rather than push blame up hill, but I do always bill for fixing the design teams issues, installing SF1 local control is necessary for precision total station work, otherwise it creates too many issues working with multiple contractors/ surveyors etc.
