my job Monday morning, week 3, was flatten and track this lot in
...... hopefully it was gonna be an easier proposition that all the bloody rock I'd done that week
the soil there was like goose shit when wet ... wacker had a mind of his own, on it, if it was wet .... just had to keep up with him .... or else!!![eek2](https://www.plantandconstruction.co.uk/core/images/smilies/s1008.gif)
Some clay, some sandy clay and some pure sand ... plus a lorrarock
when it's dry it was lovely stuff to work with and it'd been knocked about a fair bit, before it ended up in wacker and down at the tip area ![Wink](https://www.plantandconstruction.co.uk/core//images/smilies/RpS - Modern Smileys/RpS_wink.gif)
It'd been a real interesting thing to be involved in and I've learnt a lot ...
it was deffo gonna look the bollox when completed ....
Alex has a real eye for it and can really visualise what he wants to achieve, fair play to him ....
some of it had not been an easy proposition either ......
oh for a tilt bucket ... or better still a 'tilty' for some of the weirder angles.
I've been amazed at just how he managed some of it, with a fixed bucket .. and a lot of skillful operating.![whistle](https://www.plantandconstruction.co.uk/core/images/smilies/RpS - Modern Smileys/whistle.gif)
![Wink](https://www.plantandconstruction.co.uk/core//images/smilies/RpS - Modern Smileys/RpS_wink.gif)
forgotten to mention
.... this stable had to go .... and was gonna end up as bonfire fodder .... if a home couldn't be found for it .. and quick !! ![eek2](https://www.plantandconstruction.co.uk/core/images/smilies/s1008.gif)
![](http://i1275.photobucket.com/albums/y450/v8druid/scans/WP_20170209_13_08_13_Pro_zpshmkdnh0j.jpg)
Owner didn't value it and it was 'in the way' ... big time ...
So, said I'd mention it to my neighbour, who's always up for a 'freebie shed'![Biggrin](https://www.plantandconstruction.co.uk/core//images/smilies/RpS - Modern Smileys/RpS_biggrin.gif)
and took him a load of pix ..... He was ... and he had it apart PDQ in a day or two .......... and gone !!
Result ...... and hopefully a few brownie points all round
![](http://i1275.photobucket.com/albums/y450/v8druid/scans/WP_20170213_10_53_02_Pro_zpsfwmobgnv.jpg)
Was way too nice a shed to get the bucket treatment ... and I just did not have the time ....... as I had to point out to Pam![Rolleyes](https://www.plantandconstruction.co.uk/core//images/smilies/RpS - Modern Smileys/RpS_rolleyes.gif)
the cables you see to the left of the pic are the main supplies for the site ...... were supposed to be running the other side (back side) of the stable ....... good job Alex was being careful here, as we hadn't found 'em where we'd expected to
