69.5% of our timber columns are up....


View from scarborough beach road.
It's starting to look quite obvious now. Our neighbour June is getting calls from her friends asking how the "eiffel tower on scarbs" is going. :-)
Next level of the toilet block is almost up, and this time, was done in a thin bed mortar instead of the thick bed.
A crane is arriving in a few days to put up the remaining Hebel precast concrete roof panels over the toilet block.


We reckon there will be more timber than straw bales in this house. Also, we've only now realised (well I've only now realised- C may have realised this earlier), that EVERY SINGLE BALE will have to be shaped to fit around the columns!
So if anyone reading this blog is interested in some straw bale work come February, come forward! :-) We could use a few extra hands.
