Gloves in mid July !!!!!
« on: July 21, 2008, 06:43:10 am »
Dam it was cold this morning, as I cycled to the gym at 05:20am I was wishing I had gloves on
Now if it was September fair enough, but mid July

T'was chilly this morning . . . I was out in the garage spray painting at 7am and it was barely warm enough to paint.

I had to get the hot air gun out to warm the parts slightly first.

Went well though.

Well ours was 6x6x3 which with the base we used was the maximum height we could achieve before the weight of the sand was to much for the lower blockwork.

If we had doubled up the base blocks we could have gone higher but for a 1st attempt we were satisfied
