Rammed earth wall - day 7

Had a great day today. Shuttering ready to receive and all systems go so we've had our best day yet for height, achieving 1.2 metres (ish).

My crew mate of three years, Chris, is on holiday this week so very kindly put in a day's work for us.


Chris and Nick. 

It was Stelios' last day today. If you're reading this Stelios, you were missed at the dinner table tonight! He's been a top worker and very good company all week. Thanks, Stelios.


Lunch time picture. Final layer of shuttering put up last thing. 1.5 metre's left to ram. Predicted finish day = Tuesday.


Ahhh! 
The ramming rod is a modified scabbler. Usually used to key cement surfaces - so I'm told. 


Team extreme.
