I was all set to post a few more progress piccies of the digging going on at my place, when it occurred to me that I didnt really want to foul up my carving thread (or bore anyone) with all the mud and rocks, etc. This groundbreaking is going somewhere though; eventually to be a new workshop/museum/tikispace/bar/centre of Tamas Universe/BBQ area, etc. If it turns out anything like it looks in my head, youll understand why it needs a thread of its own.. :lol: Many of you may have seen some initial clearing work & now comes the heavy ground 'flipping' in order to break up the hard iron pan which stops the rainwater from disapating freely (and we get our fair share of rainwater), hence boggy/swampy ground. Hey it was cheap.. haha The digger arrives on the back of a transporter, met by the driver to bring it onto the property.. So far, so good.. Welcome - Haereeee Maaiiiii.... If we can get it through that hole there without hitting anything, Ill be a very happy Tama. Current workshop is in the garage to the left; to become a master b/room once the new workshop is operational.. Laying out boards to walk the machine over the tarseal without breaking it up - gratuitous butt-shot for the layyydies, well Jen anyway.. :wink: Ok, hold your breath.. 'Ahh, Scotty - if you do have to hit something; make sure its on the other side ok?' eek.. 'Miles of room' says Scotty.. Righto Scotty, you've got the job! phew Burying SuperBoy; my arch nemesis.. ah-hahahaaaaahaaa The new/current view from the kitchen.. to be continued... Tama :) [ Edited by: Tamapoutini 2007-11-01 15:43 ] [ Edited by: Tamapoutini 2008-04-14 02:48 ] [ Edited by: Tamapoutini 2010-04-06 04:48 ]
