Day 10: Another Piece to the Ramp

DAY 10
It’s sort of strange to think now over a year has gone by and all this has only been done in just 10 days. Well it’s another day as we build onto the existing support structure and now its 8ft 10inches high at its peak. We have one new builder that joined us, Vince Mallow and we had Greg Love back building again.

Today we ran into a few issues adding the second piece and mounting it. Because of some minor miss-alignments on the first one it caused some support 2x4s not to fit properly and then we had to go back and cut some more wood to fix the problem and then fix it so it matches with our plans for the next support piece. It was frustrating. Remember back when your teacher was telling you about math and you laughed at her saying you were never going to use that? We’ll I take it back haha Never thought we would be doing this back then.
We took a longer break than normal skating the fun box at the house and after a few scrapes and bruises we were back to building. We finished a little late, but all in all the day was good. There was just way to many sexual references going around that day haha.
