day sixteen, saturday

A light day thus far. Three hours. It's saturday, I need to go to the butcher, and it's getting hot. We'll return to "make tidy" once the sun is a little lower.

We removed the braces and what not. Tomorrow we'll remove the form ply to reveal the footing.

In the "tips" column, here's what Megan has to say:

"taping up all screws on your foundation framework is essential to ensure you can get everything apart when the framework comes off. I suggest not taping the screws until the last day: 1. tape melts/gets wet/peels off and 2. you may have to "tweek" the form work and forget to retape.

That bit of information is free. Cheers!
