I started preparing concrete, sand and gravel mixed. I put 3 shovels of sand and gravel, cement mixed with a shovel.
I was able to pour concrete into 5 molds yesterday, it is really hard to progress alone. It is very difficult and tiring to mix sand gravel and cement, then add water and mix them together, and then pour them into the molds. It is hard enough to carry only the cement, 50 kilos each. I add 12 shovels of sand and 4 shovels of cement into the gravel and add about 7-8 liters of water on it. In other words, 3 shovels and 1 shovel correspond to cement. After taking the spirit level inside the molds, I continue this way. I poured 5 molds yesterday, I had already prepared 5 molds. The first ones I spilled were frozen, I removed them. I left 2 remaining towards the end of the day. When pouring them they will freeze, then I will disassemble them. After pouring 5 molds today, only 5 will remain. Today the rain is coming, so I covered the wood, I hope they don't get wet.
There is heavy fog today, as if I'm in the clouds. Visibility is very short. The rain started yesterday evening. I filled the last mold while it was raining.
Very heavy rain started, thunder roars. There is nothing on the camera right now, but there is a heavy rain. I have no wood inside, all of the outside is wet.
Finally I was able to finish the molds. Weather conditions are pushing, there is a constant rain storm. But despite it, I completed it in 15 stencils. The foundation is now ready. I needed metal L connections to connect the woods. In Gönen, I went to the industry because I thought it would not be strong, all of them were very small in the size I wanted and I made 10cm Ls and U's by twisting 3mm and 4mm thick hair in the industry. Now I will drill the foundation posts and screw the connection equipment to the iron, and then I will start to come out of the wood. The hard part is done. I prepared concrete for the first time in my life. It was really tiring. Working alone is especially tiring. But as you see the result, one is happy. I took care of the hard part. I think it will be easier after that. Progress will be much easier if the weather permits.
These are the pieces I made in the industry, those U-U twisted in 3mm thick hair. I will make holes in the middle of them and fix them to the concrete, then I will sit in 10 to 10 planks and screw them from the sides and fix them here. I twisted 4mm of hair to be used in corner connections, at 90 degree angle areas. Sizes from 10 to 10. I will also drill holes in these, then I will make a paint so that they do not rust and deteriorate. The wound in my hand did not pass, I hit the same place with a hammer 3-4 times while hammering the iron. He's running short, but about to recover. 1s son.
The first member of the family is Yellow. 1 year old, I owned someone with 3 dogs in the village. They told me to connect 2-3 days but I was able to keep it connected for only 1 night because it was so unhappy. They said he would come back, but he got used to me very quickly. A good friend, I hope we have a nice relationship together for many years. Come here.
