Yeh well the money is good for an Engineering Surveyor, not so for the Licensed guys (Land Surveyors). I have just bought a Trimble 5601 robotic and a Topcon Hiperlite GPS with PDA running Carlson, sweet machines mate!!! Up in the Northwest of my state the Sub contract guys are on $180-$200 AUS per hour, you do the math mate. 12 hour days, 28 days on (1 day off in the middle), lotsa money to be made here in good old Australia!!

I have looked at several more tutorials and they are definitely doing something I cant pick. The cursor is normal BUT they can pick vertex loops (not hull mode) and or groups of vertices at once??
