Because some idiot (ME) put the line on wrong side of pins and for some unknown reason I didnt double check until the next day when kerbs were already set. Well spotted though Tony.

Thanks This weather is stopping me finish this job too as there is a front wall to finish off but everytime I said I was going to finish it it has either rained or been too cold. So still not been paid yet :(

we have all done it George
that horrible feeling when you realise it

I took some levels before and fecked them up
poured an oversite slab and only when the walls came down did i realise i had poured to finish floor level and not 65mm below for the screed :(
a very arduous and expensive weekend followed

your stuff looks top notch though
bit they are well chuffed

Monster moves today. relocate a 3m x 6m shed onto a new base at a school. Why dismantle when you can move in one go!
Image

shed lifted using the avant

Image

trailer slid underneath!
Image
Image

its on the move
Image

tilted into position

Image
All done!
Image

could not get the shed anymore square on the base to start as the avant wheelspun on the soft ground, so using planks and the pallet forks, we slowly slid it over!

it was worrying when the trailer wouldn't lower as the weight was too far back. but three of us stood on it and it did the trick.
