Leveling up!

The next few work sessions will be all about getting the place level and secured so we can finish the floatation.

It will take a few days just to raise it to the right height and make sure we have a square and plumb surface to work on for this next phase. Now is the time to help correct all the novice mistakes I have made up to this point.

Steve is very good about safety as well, so we will build up crib stock to create stable supports underneath which will help it withstand wind as well as movement from walking on the structure.

Also need to measure the trailer that will move the structure to make sure the lift pad will hit the appropriate places....namely where the studs are holding up the roof.

This big machine piece was in the way, so we utilized it to help straighten out the deck!
