Playing around with GIMP software.
Just getting colour ideas.(I still like the black.)

Dug over

Area to be turfed has been dug over,and site has been cleaned up a bit.
Starting to come together now. : )

Finally finished the concrete base.Bout bloody time!!!

Nice!

Hope Jeremy wont mind,but I just had to "borrow" this pic from the Sylva website.
Looking good,Jeremy!

closer

And a closer view of progress so far.

slowly slowly...

Concrete base roughly half done.
Hope to get some more done today or tomorrow.
Cheers James.

Nicely.

Garden is coming on nicely.
Hardcore and MOT,(pink stuff?!) ,laid and bashed flat. Just debating whether to mix my own or get in 2M of readymixed concrete,which contains fibres to stop cracking.
Just incase anyone is interested,I had a request to weigh the chassis this week.
I bought a 100kg fishing scale,and used a pair of ally ladders with the scales half way up.attached the other end of the scales at the cog of the cahssis,and lifted one end of the ladder until the chassis raised off the ground. The result...62Kg,this is without panelling,or any suspension components.Just the naked chassis.

Garden close up

Here is a close up of the area.
Anyone got any hardcore in the Littlehampton area???

Garden

This is the garden at the moment. You can see the chassis on the LHS.
Just in front of it is the line of sleepers creating the boundary.

Stuff.

I could attach the ally tubing,and get on with some of the paneling,but I would rather get the build area done.That way I can start properly,in a decent enviroment.
I have marked out the area that I am going to use. It is 16 ft wide by 12 ft deep. On this I plan to have a 12 x 8 workshop,and use the other 12 x 8 space to build the car on.
I have used 2 railway sleepers to mark the boundary area,and will fill the area behind the sleepers with hardcore,then concrete on top.
Cheers James
