These last two days have seen the creation of new wooden scaffolding modules, eleven of them in total, each measuring 8feet by 4feet and 2.1metres (7feet) high.
We spend half the day yesterday in creating the various parts, ready to be assembled, and we had time to make two modules yesterday.

These two were also fixed to the building structure which made it very solid without hardly a wiggle when we stood on the platform.
Today, we continued making a further nine modules ..

.. and we now have a total of eleven modules, to allow us to build a complete walkway from one corner at the back of the building, to the other far back corner.

Tomorrow, we will adjust the positioning of all these modules and fixed them to the building itself to make it all rigid and safe, including mounting a 150mm high kick board on the outer edge to stop both “workers” and “tools” from slipping off the platform!!
