Got this job done a couple of days early so had a nice bit of time sorting my Teg drive at home today, My Ranger has been dropping a spot of oil so had 2m2 to uplift and relay then pressure wash and resand.

Nice to see that laying pattern. Much easier than the full random pattern. What did you point with?

I always point with 3:1. were lucky round here the Building sand either yellow or soft grey/missen goes through the guns without any blockages, no fancy addatives needed.

The guy im working for is a Chippie! to be fair to him the laths were cut to the old pillars he built! The old pillars were well supported in the cavity, 6 empty carling black lable cans in each!. His wife has just booked me in to do a 15m2 deck. dont know if he knows yet. The pillars were a steady job. the railings were existing and both slightly different, every stone had to be dressesd to fit.

cookie, not criticising ( wouldn't dare the maester ) but all i can see is a charlie chaplin type runaround. Think your in danger of over egging the mix with time lapings. I much prefer some stunning shots by the camera. Just my opinion as lapses can become boring. Did you sort your mits out with the dr?

I was going to pass the same comment as sean a couple of days ago (we have so much in common sean :p )

the skill required to do the type of work you do cookie is priceless and while the time lapse is different just having a small area being laid as a video every few days would make a fantastic 1 - 2 minute video when joined together or do photos every day and use these joined together with the different effects now available into a professionally made video

I am currently having 3 videos made professionally using photos with the ken burns effect where the photo looks like its moving with a actors voice over
