passed the half way mark...
Perfect weather today for just welding. A nice clear/calm day. Took a sun break from 3 -4 to soak up some vitamin D. Passed the half way mark on installing all the purlins. Eight more rows to go between the existing ones. Problem is, I have run out of the bar stock to make the 70+ more flanges that I need to fabricate. High winds in the forecast for the next 3 days. Will figure out the next step in the morning. 57,79,31,0
It's looking really good :)
ReplyDeleteJohn just C clamp the purlin to the1/2 " rebar and weld. you don't need the flanges.Just a thought.If I tell you a piss ant can pull a freight train just tie him on.Just make sure you use something that won't break.
