We haven't had rain in a really long time but there's still water right down there so tomorrow before we pour we'll have to suck all that extra water out more fun digging holes, yeah we're just about done good morning so I came out here and of course, there's water in the hole I had to drain it twice but it's Metal Corner Brackets so it's more than deep enough so that's good I put the paver at the bottom for stability I had to cut the form around the rock that's sticking out of the hillside and prevent the concrete from spilling on the low side and get that all secure and cut the post and level it braces it I think we're ready for concrete nice okay are you sure this is our last poll nope not sure I hope it is okay he's putting some dry concrete down there and as you can see he's got the level that he continues checking on all sides to make sure. Large metal corner brackets, Metal corner brackets for wood, Heavy-duty metal corner brackets, Long metal corner brackets, Metal corner brackets Screwfix, Decorative metal corner brackets, Corner brace brackets, L brackets.

Outdoor screws Screwfix, Railway sleeper brackets, Screwfix railway sleeper brackets, Railway sleeper brackets b&q. The pole's not moving but you want to see something really cool so he attached a peak string to this because at one point this got knocked off and fell right into the hole not this one but a different one and it was full of water and it went all the way down to the bottom and it was super annoying so now it's got a little string on it in case it falls it's not gonna fall in the concrete or the water and he actually did knock it off today again so it's come in handy so actually four we actually have to put the concrete in a bucket because we're trying to fill a hole that is on a really sleek steep slope right there we can't get that cement mixer over here so he's gonna have to use a bit of use the bucket to fill it up so it takes a lot longer to do it that way but kind of our only choice at this point how come you're Outdoor Screws not just pouring the bags in there yeah the first six posts or so we that's what we did we just poured the bag in.

But it takes a while to pour the bag and sometimes the bag gets caught on these tines and then oh yeah and it's just really really hard on my back to hold that bag for that long so we found this works pretty good and then you can put the right mix in this is how old people do it right babe one scoop at a time so sometimes it's a little tricky to get the right mix and what I found is if there's not enough water the concrete mix balls up there's a lot of little balls rolling around here so this is what he was talking about earlier when there's like little if it's too wet it's sloppy and so the right mix is somewhere in between you can see how it kind of falls.
