Nice concreting work there Tony. Clean as a whistle.

Maybe you could come and have a chat with a few of my lads. They dont seem to understand the concept of tidy as you go :D

cheers steve,its only oversites but I am a firm believer in keeping everything spot on as you go
i put the dumpy over the concrete when it was done and its no more than +/- 5mm over 12M, screeders should be ok with that
TBh i dont know why they cannot make a 100mm electric saw with water suppression,most things are do able now

plenty giles, especially as the gravel is slightly lower on the other side. besides the customer only wanted three rows!

very nice haggi,
i dont like using the lights anymore as they sem to be nothing but trouble even with 100% installation
last time I did them each light had to sit in its own 150 pipe filled with shingle,big dramas with the cable etc
good thinking with the cores,thats what killed it for me was taking nearly an hour to core right through 40-50 mm sandstone
should have done your trick :;):
lovely work
LLL :)

Had to cut them as the core drill was about 10mm shy and I cracked one when cleaning off the edges :angry:

Wonderfully neat cuts, but the dust betrays the use of very naughty dry cutting! :angry:
