Week 1, Day 1

Week 1, Day 1:

  • Mostly a day of preparation for the work to come
  • The digger and dumper got delivered but not until quite late in the day
Day 1

Week 1, Day 1

The string lines I’d laid at the weekend show up fairly well in this photo, marking out the positions of the outer walls.The visible crossing of the string lines nearest the camera is the south-east corner of the house (where the kitchen will be).

Documenting the Build Progress

I’m not completely sure how best to document the progress of the build on these pages. The ‘timelapse’ camera is working well so a fairly easy option is to use one of the hourly snapshots from that to show any visible progress, together with text and extra photos if something else warrants a special mention.

For now I’ll aim to post an update for the end of every day and see how that goes. The updates are unlikely to be posted in real-time but fortunately WordPress lets you publish updates on a specified schedule, so they either look like they were posted earlier or they only become visible at the scheduled time.
