GM Making plans today. Next 4-5 months I'll be working on my house. Hopefully with some help from friends and family. Then the work order needs to be thought out, so that we got the things we need for the work at the right time. The work on renovating a house is not so difficult, be the planning and decision making is. So that's what we start writing down today. Last couple of days we really have made progress on ideas and solutions, but today we manifest. #watchknifepen

Finished. Looks good. All the hard work is not visible to people, but those who know, they know. A good feeling. View quoted note →

GM Hard work ahead.

Original and my new stack. This one will not sink further into the ground. And the house stands about 6-7 cm taller above this stack. And the house is a bit straighter, the doors inside close. The original was a bit more pretty from the rear, but now it looks better from the outside. We got maybe three more stacks to do.

GM Ready for work. #watchknifepen

This is the old food storage house to the Church farm in my home town. We think that because of a new road the water have found new ways and made the ground softer and some of the poles/stone stacks have sunken a bit down. We have jacked the house up, in the middle, four stacks disassembled and done anew. We took two on the same beam line, then the next two. We had to digg deep to get underneath the soft soil, when you get down to the lighter layer, the soil is dead and can't compress anymore. So we build from that level. Last picture is the stone stack I took down at the end of today, and will reassemble it tomorrow. Hard work. Tight space to work under. Knees hurting.
