Made another batch of aniseed rusks inbetween Zoom and teams meetings.
Man must eat.
House smelled rather good for two days.
Plan originally was to create wall plates to hold the roof on the garage side.
But like all great plans, it was reviewed after we had measured and set out the steel as planned, then I decided that there was enough steel to use full lengths resting on the ground and bolted to the wall.
So start afresh....
Measure out 16 tabs and two straps on 65mm x 10mm flat bar, pilot drill, then 13mm holes to take the M12 Fisher bolts (Like Rawl Bolts, but longer threaded bar inserts to cut to length after fixing)
25 of these puppies for £29.00 or thereabouts
Tabs cutting used 1 x 1mm disc per 2.5 cuts.
Pile of bits to clean up, and grind a decent weld edge onto.
Better, ready to weld onto steel beams.
Also noticed what a mess the garage had turned into since starting this carport build.
Hopefully it will all come together and result in some real work getting done too.
During the day while working at the day job, I got a pic from one of the inmates of this forum and he was not a happY guY
On a train, Londonbound, wearing a virginal white gimp mask.
