11/21/09 Today we began work on the foundation for the protective structure for the car (and us) by laying out the footprint and the stakes for the holes for the frame poles. Bob thinks the line looks pretty good, but is wondering how he is going to move that rail. Actually, the plan is to use the rails to anchor the frame poles, rather than pouring concrete, in part to make the building more easily moved if and when necessary.
The next step is to drill the holes using the "helicopter" for the poles. The "big boys" did the first one and the "little guys" finished the job.
Luckily we got all the holes drilled and covered, because the weather hasn't been very cooperative since. The structure will extend beyond the car on this end to provide some covered work space in addition to the area in the woodshop (aka pod), which is rapidly diminishing because of the workbench, power tools, etc.
