Jim worked on coming up with a design for the angle pieces that will be needed to connect the steel ties to the end wall. He'll need to make 6 of these pieces eventually.
He also got the rebar cut for the auto lift pad. Unfortunately, the rebar bender is in storage since our road trip so he'll have to go get that to finish this job.
My job today was to paint the ledger pieces with primer. I got them all set up and then we realized that the roller that we need is also in the storage unit. This is one of the frustrating things about having tools spread out all over. I know Jim can't wait to have everything in one place again.
So then we changed gears and went back to work on getting the foam pieces down. It's hard trying to level gravel enough so that the foam is perfectly level - sometimes one or two bigger pieces stick up and cause issues.
The compactor works great to get everything level - however, after compacting if it still isn't quite flat, the compactor has to come back out again to flatten down all the disturbed gravel.
Jim had to cut the corner on this piece to go around a stack.
Fitting the puzzle piece around the stack.
Moving over to the other side...
