All of the framing for the decks is completed now, excluding the "braai deck".

We also received the last of the Torara order. We have enough for the eastern side now. We have decided to plane the timber, to get an even thickness. It is amazing to have a timber that has no direction when planing, you can start from either end. Well, we have about 60 boards, all planed roughly 4 times to save the life of the planer. Saturday I was planning on chamfering the edges with the router, but had to buy a router bit for the correct 5 mm radius.

Then Jaco called: Can he assist in putting up more of the fibre boards to covert the underside of the house? He could not come immediately, so Elna and myself removed our hoard of good timber from under the deck. Jaco turned up and we fitted the boards. Then the task of putting the hoard back. We did not manage to do it all yesterday, but tomorrow is a new day.

It does not seem much, but we did a lot of work this past week. I appreciate the chance to rest.

Enjoy your rest!
