So I've tried to make a 64x64 area for my quarry, but the land marks won't shoot out all 4 lazers, can anybody help?

make sure all three are on the same level
make sure they are all within range of each other (you can do this by applying a redstone signal to the "middle" landmark)
make sure when you want to connect the land marks that you right-click the "middle" landmark

note: the "middle" land mark is the one that can see both others in straight lines.

The first 1 made perfect sense but the last 2 got me confused

No worries, hopefully this helps for 2 and 3.
2. make sure that the two landmarks aren't too far away from each other, that is, further than 64 blocks away. try moving them closer and see what happens

3. make sure you are right clicking the correct land mark

You should have three landmarks, marking three points of a triangle

2 x x x x x x x x x 3

in this very poorly drawn example (drawn?)
you would need to right click on the landmark at point 2 because it can see both landmarks 1 and 3 in straight lines
this would then mark a square (or rectangle) with the distances between those landmarks.

I hope that is a little more clear and that I didn't explain what you already knew.

Note, to show the guide lasers, you need to apply a redstone signal to the landmark.

Well what I do is first I place down a land mark. Then I apply a redstone signal (lever will do) and that will create blue lazers that shoot out in every direction. Then at the end of two of the lasers place two more land marks like shown in the previous post. The blue lasers will help make sure you line up the marks precisely. Of course right click the first land mark when all are done being placed. This will create a box of red lasers. Place the quarry next to the first land mark you placed and poof you have a 64x64 quarry.

Oh wow that actually worked! Thank you!
