We have just completed another Work Weekend where we spent a lot of =
time cutting joints, building bridges etc. Very worthwhile.
The next one is on the weekend of July 20th/21st, just under three weeks =
time.
This will be the Big One when we put the big timbers in the ground and - =
if all goes according to plan - the aisle plates and cross beams, thus =
completing the central aisle, the heart of the building.=20
We have started cutting top joints on the side aisle plates now and work =
continues apace.
There will be lots of tasks for willing hands to do, including in the =
forestry where we now have a cleared area for future camping, LHE etc. =
There is still a lot to do here in clearing the forest floor and =
building dead hedges. Bring gloves, rakes and hand axes if you want to =
work in this area.
We have decided that the longhall building site will be taped off for =
health and safety reasons, as there will be tracked vehicles working in =
that area. In particular, children and "onlookers" will not be allowed =
inside the tape during the time the machines are working .=20
If you are working in that area, you must have steel toecapped boots. =
If you are working on the structure with above-head structures, you will =
need to wear a hard hat too - Regia has a supply of these, although if =
you wanted to buy your own they are under a fiver.
This will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the raising of a =
Longhall, an unforgettable experience. We strongly recommend that you =
should come on Friday night to be ready for the early start, 7.50am for =
breakfast.
If you are intending to come and work, please e-mail Aly Higginson to =
let her know so that we can arrange your free camping and food. No =
booking - no camping and no food! Please copy your booking to Nigel and =
me, so we can plan the work properly.
Regards,
Kim Siddorn.
The early bird may get the worm -
