Hard hats? Hi-viz? Method statement? Risk assessment? Lift plan?
Well done lads, it's a shite job in the rain.

Charlie, Charlie.... Hard hats are for people with brains to protect... Hi Viz. well Jono had his on just in case he fell off and we wouldn't then run over him with the Manitou.... Method statement, well our method was the best method we could come up with, and a Yorkshire man, a Hully Gully where involved... I drove it and the Manitou lifted it... Yes its shit in the rain but at least it wasn't pissing down... So today we fitted the roof trusses.... Cheers Marcus

That is impressive and some excellent measuring, how well has that gone together great work mate, is it double pitch on the roof just looking at width first part it does'nt fill the width of the base

Thanks Simon and Mick, Yes it surprised me how easy it went up. But I think that's down to some great help, planning and a little bit of lady luck on our side. Yes it bolted together really well, which helped. So yes the whole base will be utilised. Unfortunately the image isn't great but it gives you an idea of how it'll look when finished... Phase two will be a mirror image of what's already been constructed, although the first section (nearest the front) will be a larger bay to accommodate a four poster ramp. Cheers Marcus

Well after lots more welding, cutting, drilling and painting.....
It was time for Erection party No.2
Sunday saw the weather change for the worst in the morning but we had to push on....
But the sun came out in the afternoon...
And in the afternoon we decided on a well earned Beer and tried to re-create that famous New York picture....
Cheers Marcus.
