ramblings of a wandering nerdan aimless amble on a winding road

Construction of the shed continues and completions is earmarked for this weekend. More to come….

Well thought I would check out the wordpress iPhone app while I was having a coffee break. Neat. Not sure where the photo is going to end up.

Progress is good which is a little surprising, since i was up past 1am and back up again at 7:30 doing uni. But after finishing that at 11 it was all systems go!

Bearers are in, joists are currently going on. Tomorrow morning the old study (new bathroom) floor will be pulled up and the yellowtounge redeployed to the shed. Then it’s framing time!

Stay tuned.

PS: infinitely more satisfying than sitting at a desk!

Well on Sunday I set about digging and laying the footings. There were only 12 so I gave myself 4 hrs. 8hrs later, and under floodlights, it was completed…. Almost. Some bastard had put a 75mm stirrup in the 90mm box so I ended up one short.

The digging was easy, the leveling out, not so easy. But with Kates help, we got it all level, got a number of beers down and was mighty satisified come 8pm.

Here are some pictures …
