Screwed the rack down
Mounted the panels
Bentonite done...waiting for the final tonnage tally. 102,112,65,0,B
Nice work on the panel mount. I remember a while back you had the wooden rack on wheels so you could move it to face directly into the sun as the day progressed.
The dam looks great. Now all you need is some rain.
got a pic of your spillway?
ReplyDeleteI'd hate to be paying your bills! Panels look good.
ReplyDeleteGood job on that dam. Cant wait till monsoon season to see how it worked
ReplyDeleteHope the panels are Benita proof...
ReplyDeleteJust outta curiosity... what's bentonite going for by the ton?
ReplyDeleteWow John what are you building there? It kind of looks like your impression of the Hoover Dam. Let me know when you start having swim call.
ReplyDeleteBenita on a full moon night? bet that's as beautiful as she is.
