Great weather to make progress and we are ready to receive the prefabricated concrete floor slabs tomorrow.
The foundation and foundation blockwork is ready. On the outside all painted / water blocked with a bitumen (tar-seal / compound) paint. Pipe inlets and outlets for water and sewage are placed. The main electricity line was in already.
I had to install for now the first three lintels in the house. All above the entrances of the crawl spaces.
On top of the blockwork and the lintels we put a 'Drytechplus' reinforced bitumen layer to protect any water or moisture to come into the concrete groundfloor and walls we are going to build on top.
We also nearly finished the inside of the workplace/toolstorage.
Once we bought a bucket of paint for the inside of the pyramid. I did not like the color so did not use that paint. This time, after Phatsamon put a basic primer on the walls, we could use it well.
The outside wall are in primer as well. Waiting for time to put the tiles on top.
Yesterday we installed the roof panels. Although the electricity inside is not installed yet, we can use the place already for storage now so we can go on finishing the second guest pyramid room. We have space inside again.
Today we brought in a workbench and will install some storage racks and a steel cabinet.
The road to our living and constructionsite in combination with the width of our entrance gate made we need two small trucks instead of one bigger one for the floor elements to be delivered tomorrow. It is the way it is.
In the mean time Phatsamon managed to harvest the first bananas. We still have to wait a couple of days for them to get yellow. Sure they will taste great.
