The Chicken Hut - building the structure

21 - 24 April 2017

More of the same, days of it, surprisingly.  The ground is very dry and hard, and full of stones, so trying to keep the uprights upright was quite a challenge - and one we failed, mostly. 

Dave knocked in about 18 base supports (1.5m x 16mm: short and strong enough to get a lump hammer to) leaving 80-90 cm above ground, and then we wire-lashed taller, thinner bars to those (2m x 12mm).  In our tea breaks (frequent) I stripped the old polythene off the temporary door and frame we used before the front door came.
