Dave and Dad made great progress while they were up there on the verandah foundation, pausing only when the ran into a hiccup with the ceiling height.
They got all the stumps in for the verandah on the long side of the house. This was a big job apparently as not only did they have to dig out the holes, it was a pain getting everything lined up perfectly. Even worse - the tractor got a flat tire, so after all the effort to get the augre, they had to do a lot of it by hand!
Here's the beginning...
They dug out each hole ...
Then filled with cement.
Repeat many times and you have a forest of stumps...
A quick tangent to dig out a flat area for the under-verandah tank...
Then it's time for some framing...
They even got the posts up (with temporary supports until Dad gets the roof frame up) and voila, the verandah starts to take shape.
