Publication number: 20090243848Abstract: A reference point locator comprises a reference member and a receiver. The reference member includes an attachment element and a magnet. The attachment element is configured to releasably secure the reference member to one side of a structure. The receiver includes a sensor and an indicator. The indicator is configured to emit a signal in response to the sensor detecting from another side of the structure a magnetic field generated by the magnet.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2009Publication date: October 1, 2009Applicant: LABOR SAVINGS SYSTEMS, LTD.Inventor: Mark TURNER
