The Electricity Trench

The trench has begun! The trench is around 300 metres long. It runs from the house site down to our shed. On the shed we have 32 solar panels installed, which are connected to the grid to sell our electricity = small or no electricity bills for us!




The trench runs across our winter creek. In this trench will be the electricity cables, telephone, network, pipe to pump rain water from shed water storage, pipe to pump dam water for use on our garden.




Here is the beast at work.....I mean the machine not the husband......rofl

Slab preparation begins!

The slab is getting ready! Plastic down and steel supports going in.




The centre support of the house has a 1.2 metre deep channel. This will be filled with cement.



It rained this week so the channels filled with water, turned out to be a good millipede trap :)
