Hi, so today the work will be
to finish the concrete here, so
remove all the water that
accumulated over a week here,
heavy rain, and do a bit of the
same thing on the other
bearer on the deck. So this be
arer was put a few months ago,
now the change it's not
far enough that way. So I'm
going to unscrew the four
attachments to the four posts,
you
can see this is there, and I
will move it by 30 cm and screw
it again, and add an extra
post just there, a bit the same
way I added currently this
extra post here, a long one
that will be used as an angle
after. And hopefully that will
be the work done for today.
That's
it. Alright so now I did move
the bearer by approximately 300
mm, it doesn't sound much
but that's going to help me to
square out the deck later. So
you see there was a previous
hole so I'm shifting everything
to 300 mm width really. Now
that gives me a bit of an
extension here that need a new
post there to support this
extra 300 mm, 500 mm. So that's
what I'm doing now. So I've got
an extra stirrup like that, I'm
going to do some concrete,
maybe it doesn't do concrete,
but first with my new post here
I need to cut the bottom
of it to put the stirrup. It's
a bit fiddly because I also can
't go as far as this height.
But I'll do that now and then I
can go to the next step.
Alright so now I've done the
cut inside for the stirrup,
which is here. I've drilled two
holes, maybe 12 mm. This
is a 10 mm screw which is yours
for me. Adding that here. 120
mm this screw so a little bit
wider than the 100 mm post and
a washer and that and I'll be
done next step. And now I'm
going to prepare the hole for
the post here mostly. Location
doesn't have to be exactly
precise now it's after when I
fix it it's going to make it
work. With this tool, which
is a, what is it? A pizza post.
Very convenient to drill a deep
hole without moving too much
soil. I do that and then I will
do the post. So that's a bit
like that that the post will
look like. The hole is done. So
now I'm going to prepare in the
post a cut. The washer will
be 1 meter from the top of the
stirrup in the bottom of the
post. A cut so it would
be like this one here as I've
done before. Cut on this side
the 20 mm on each side and
200 mm high. The mirror is a
190 mm high so 200 mm will give
me a bit of margin. And let's
go let's do it. Okay so right
now I just did mark the post so
exactly 1 meter from the
base on a 200 mm side and I'm
gonna cut it with a bar here
probably. I'm gonna cut it
on a 20 mm depth. So to doing
that I will use a circular saw
I set the depth to 20 mm
and I will cut, cut, cut many
times and then I finish with a
wood chisel to chop everything
out. So now I did the cut here
put the post in place and what
I wanted to have is a square
angle between that side and the
other side here. So I did a
Pythagoras triangle here
and that means I should be able
to put I got exactly 1.5 meter
here 2 meters there and
2.5 on the long side. That
means I need to put the post
there and I will have an exact
square angle in this deck here.
And that's it for today.
Tomorrow I finish the drill
and I will do the compass here.
Done.
