Day 6: We managed to attached 6 pallets on the wall today. It was hard work but everyone was in good spirits at the end of the day.
Posted 5 May 2016 20:19
Day 6: Disaster struck when we didn’t have the correct size drill bit, so an emergency trip to B&Q was in order yet again to buy new drill bits. As we have may have forgotten to mention we only had one drill. The team also made a start on clearing the rest of the garden, which Louis wants to develop in the future.
Posted 5 May 2016 20:14
Day 6: As temperatures rose and the pallet continued to go up on the wall, it was realised that a few pallets would be left over and unused. With the remaining pallets and spare planks of wood the team then tested out making small flower boxes and were able to create 3 new boxes. Then it was up to some of the team to line the shelves with leftover DPM and fill them with soil, as well as cut down the excess DPM.
Posted 5 May 2016 20:14
Day 6: Konrad later supervised this labour and continued to disseminate the process to the rest of the group. Whilst this was happening, we had to attach the DPM underlay. Then lift the pallet into place and check it was level, before drilling with the masonry drill and then screwing the pallet into place.

Group 5: Model photography workshop. "capturing the model in flight"
Posted 5 May 2016 20:11
Day 6: Yesterday had been a hot and enduring day and Konrad had decided he was a pirate. Progress continued on site of the Miners, with four pallets left to reconstruct so that the group can proceed to attaching the pallets to the wall. Assistance was provided from Dave the Jack of all trades who told us how to attach the reconstructed pallets to the wall.
