MONDAY

today we finished levelling our walls and making them aquare. we checked the string lines and made and adjustments to the walls where needed by nailing diagonal bracing fomr the bottom plate to the opposite wall top plate and measuring the pencil thickness before nailing in place. we also used spirit levels on the outside of wall corners to make sure everything was nice and plumb. after this we did dog leg in the walls that needed it and measured and cut the end noggings before nailing them in place. then we cleaned up the site puting away all tolls used and cleaning away off cut timber and what not.
we went to the library after lunch to discuss our construction sequence for making wall frames and erecting them. rob wrote up a draft as we all contributed our ideas then i typed up a good copy on the computer and printed them off.
after this i looked at my blog and pretty much typed up what you just read....
