Hummmm… Weather control by dust cloud. Wonder when someone will suggest that we send up our own talc bombs?

Got the storm door moved from the center wall of the qhut to the greenhouse entrance in the end wall of the 12 wide. Footing dug where the door is going and blocks set in place for sizing. Cat has gone to get weekend food stuffs and a hose pipe. Will start pouring cement when she gets back.

Built a set of steps out of industrial shelving standards. Still got to cut the 2×6 or 8’s to make the treads but this way I can adjust the step height as needed. Make nice semi portable steps. Got to get a couple of longer uprights for the bottom and then I can add hand rails out of pipe, bamboo or wood as the mood strikes. I think I have figured out a way to use the erector set or bolt together type to build a spiral stair case to the second floor. Will try to remember to charge the cam and take pix as I build that.

Still got to get the nails out of the fiberglas window on the end of the qhut. The second floor support is going to over lap it about a half an inch. Will be covered up inside and out anyway so no biggie. Soon as I get those out I’ll set the 2x6x16 and then the corner 4×4 and drive the angle bracket into the ground to hold it level and square. Then will take the 4×4 out and pour the cement and lay the blocks, and put it back in. Then will be able to set the door and start on laying cans and bottles to make the qhut side wall section.

About got the root cellar hole filled and packed. If not for the packing I would have some energy left but can’t leave voids so am wearing me out. Got to get it almost filled to put a ladder on it to pull the nails out of the fiberglas.

Sequential Vortex # 7532 on this project…
