Spent 9 hours on the digger today prepping the shed pad. Got it all dug out and got about 30 tonnes of rubble in place that is mostly level. Got another 4 tonnes of rubble to chuck in tomorrow, a whole lot more levelling and that's all for the digger. Will put my laser level to use, to finish it off with rakes, then onto compaction. I'll hire a roller cos be farked holding onto a compactor all day. 

 

I know there's at least one mod still present, maybe they can move this to the right spot :stirthepot:

Yeah man it was an effort. My outside temp gauge said 41C, it was pretty warm lol, got some sunburn action going on. Pad looks good though and will be spot on for the shed install.

Got a whole bunch more done on the pad, ⅓ of it is within 2cm which is killa, another ⅓ is within 5cm and the other third is about 10cm low. It is level side to side, it's the length of it that drops. Not bad for an eye ball job but needs some work. Tomorrow, I'll use my mower to pull a dyno ramp to more evenly distribute the base, so it is within the 3cm required.

 

It's the same size as the shed in the background, but has a personnel door where their roller door is and has 3 roller doors along the width.

 

I'll fix the fence when it falls down ;)

 

Here's a few pics of the progress

The pile isn't that big, I'll get a pic later. I should have laser leveled the hole I dug for the fill and then the fill would have gone down level. Oh well, it'll be sorted by the weekend.
