It has been crazy to say the least. Monday was a really big day in the shop build progression.
Monday, Ford Crane came to the house and boomed a 16x16 playhouse approximately 120ft across the back yard. I had to dig out the playhouse foundation to make way for steal i-beam supports - they can be seen in the video. Then the crane company setup spreader bars and started moving - a longer video is in the works. It took 2 picks to move and set the playhouse into its new home.
One YT commenter asked "but why?". A fair question. The playhouse is 16'x16' (256sf) and was situated where the new shop is to be built. The playhouse is sided with hardi-board, has vinyl windows, sheetrock, tongue and grove ceiling, and flooring so it was far cheaper to move than replace.
It went so smooth and the playhouse is back in action.
Tuesday, a tractor arrived to the property to my shock.
Then yesterday, Wednesday, the 7 trees were taken down, the sod was scraped off the build area, I did 5 dump loads off trees and sod to Reece Trucking, and the foundation rebar and driveway gravel was delivered. (more videos to come)
Oh, yea. Got a new construction home under contract over the weekend.
Today is a mess outside with snow, wind, sleet, rain and general nastiness that we're holding off any work today. Well at least as far as I know now. Anyhoo, enjoy the videos on this YouTube Thursday.
