The last nearly two weeks were days of cutting and welding to get the main construction ready. To be honest, steel is not my favorite material. I love working with wood most but here, with to much termites, that's no option for keeping the structures in a sustainable good quality and condition.
Choosing for pyramids does not make the work easy for us. Cutting is not just a matter of cutting but first of all measuring the different angles of every beam you want to weld. But... meditation ;).
In the mean time we also ordered several materials. The first small bricks had to come from two provinces further than our place. Bathroom wall- and floor tiles are on their way. We got the floor leveling cement and laminate floor planks.
Around the campfire place we covered the benches with the same materials as the labyrinth floor. We also put the sewage pipes in place to transport rainwater from the two pyramid rooms to the pond. Happy to have good level instruments.
The first U-ditch unites are in place.
To protect the steel against rusting we got Captain red oxide primer. Great name and it must be quality ;).
A company we discovered in our village will make a scale example of a glass top roof cover for the pyramid. We are excited to see the model.
Last but not least we found a new family member. A second turtle who found his (or her) place in our pond.
