Guess what this is???

 

[BassMerc]

You don’t usually see two moles so far out of the ground.

 

[00slk]

Good guess Den, but wrong

 

[Blobcat]

A snorkel...

 

[00slk]

Nope

looks like a means of stopping the ratchet strap holding the beam down from slipping off the end of the beam. presumably its windy where you are today

It looks like an anchor of sorts....

It certainly was windy, hence the ratchet strap holding the beam from toppling, but not the answer we are looking for.

Hmmm, 'Anchor'....Not SL55 related???

 

[V6Matty]

Progress????

 

[Jim2]

Clamps while the retaining straps are ratcheted up..

Finally, but not the right answer

Clamps while the retaining straps are ratcheted up..

Straps to secure the main beam, it was very windy, however not right Jim

It is bird poop on my clean conservatory glass window ..........

Phew, and there was I trying to think of a suitable comment about anchors being for boats where the water is kept outside rather than cars that keep the water in the boot!

Not if you remove the bung......

is the swan on the left side of the window checking to see how deep the pond is?

 

[flying haggis]

Swan thought it deep enough

I had delayed an up date due to my respect for Sabine as it was on the same motor discussion title
However I am back now and there has been a good bit of progress late last week with the addition of the rafters being positioned on to the steel at the front of the build.





He'll be back Monday and weather permitting we'll have all up, plus the batons and building paper (or what ever the correct term is) and the ends for the barge board's by Wednesday??
Apparently there has been rumours going around according to my neighbour that we are building a bungalow
My other neighbour has seen 2 people walking up our driveway peering at what's being built
Well excuse me

 

[00slk]

Rafters prepared for the other side
Should be able to have them in place tomorrow
