Hey Blog! Not too much has changed since yesterday. We’re still building walls as fast as we can. However, on the trellis side of things, the steel combs to prevent wobbling between the members finally came in, and the longest section of the overhead portion has been completed! We just have to assemble the entire cohort to lift that bad boy up and out of the shop, then get the smaller portions fitted with their combs. Should be relatively easy… I hope I didn’t just jinx it.
As a little enlightening (literally) safety tip for the good of the group, I’ve learned not to let sparks fly back at you while cutting with an angle grinder. Otherwise, you might catch on fire and burn holes in your clothes. #hot
Another tip: don’t let the cat catch the rat. We (the rats) were caught by the cat (David) trying to leave class 20 minutes early (I just wanted to catch a glimpse of the sun tbh), so we had to do the walk of shame back to the shop, where we cleaned up and learned how to properly wrap extension cords so they don’t get all tangled. Real exhilarating.
Sorry there wasn’t much to report this time. Enjoy some pictures of the process:
