Interfaces

Update: We have connected the woolshed to the existing biocycle system and laid 3 phase and telephone. Underground messy stuff but progress. Also landline to our whare so I can upload again :)

Oh and also have plans nearly finalised...kitchen layout not as we want but nearly ready.

One Side Dressed

Totara side is looking very respectable. The eastern side has been wrapped. We quite like the ITM look.

And just for more entertainment...we did this too!

This is my/our Lab...a workshop and storage area...escape area.

On piles, ready for cleaning and occupation.

We have landed.

The woolshed is safely on the piles with a wee bit of jiggling. Next we have to fix one end of the internal gutter and cover the side where the lean-to was removed. Then it will be general tidying until I sell my property.

This is Totara. The wing (gable/side) that will eventually be the bedrooms, bathrooms, washhouse entrance.

Piles of 'Em

Piles in, all inspected. We are still up in the air until tomorrow morning. Central movers are amazing. Look how tidy they are underneath. I love these guys...

And

Tune in over the weekend folks. We will continue the entertainment.
To come:

• Hats on
• a ramble around the footings
• and a tour inside our future home with hints of her future internal layout.

Ok the roof is on. Holes for piles (300 of them) also dug today but haven't any new photos yet.

Wee hole digger

Uniting the Sisters on Sight: With Movement and Voice

This morning 7m joined her sister, 9m (7m wide gable & 9m wide gable)

 

  

Last 2 sections of the roof waiting to come on site.

This older gable has shingles as well as the totara sarking under the iron

Waiting to be United

Here are the last pieces waiting for the trip through Caterton and Greytown to join her sister.

We're 1/2 on!

So exciting. One of the gables is in situ. Waiting for her mate to arrive.

The first 1/4 of the roof to be on our land

The second 1/4 approaching our boundary

The 9M wide side about to be put in position

One Side Ready to Roll Out

The wider side is now moving in wee hours on the morning of May 1. May Day appropriately!
The second gable joining the first later that evening.

 9M roof ready to move out onto road.

7M Side looks lonely without her mate.

9M side ready to join her roof in the convoy.

The Trucks are Under

We have lift off. The trucks are underneath, and the roof is being taken off. 4 loads will be transported tonight, another two smaller loads (the narrow gabled roof) tomorrow night. We are hoping the weather holds.

Just ease that corner on Felicity. One hand should do it.

The lower poop.

Yes, a bit oversized.

A Moving Experience Begins
