Our timber arrived on Friday which meant we could spend the weekend bolting on the bearers and nailing on the joists. This is where we ended up on Saturday afternoon. All the posts had been bolted into the footings and the bearers bolted on.
Steve chiselling out a housing for one of the bearers. He keeps his face covered now since it was disfigured from a nasty incident with three magpies and a brush turkey. Just kidding.
Things starting to take shape.
Steve looking under the house which is now free of its lattice cladding and snake netting. I kid you not, black netting had been put up by one set of owners sometime in the house's history to try and deter snakes from taking up residence.
