    Default Working on Structures (3/21-22) & Wood Delivery

    Working on the wood berm projects this weekend. Meeting at 9:00 am in the upper south parking lot near the salt dome. These kind of projects tend to be more slow going since the work is specialized and as a result don't require as many people. 6-8 people with some carpentry experience would be ideal. All are welcome however and we can find other things to do if we get too many people.

    Saturday - 3/21

    Continuing work on the laminated berm support beams.

    Tools/items to bring:
    - Clamps: c-clamps and bar clamps are preferable since they have a higher clamping force. Need at least a 5" jaw opening.
    - Impact drivers (have one, one or two more should be enough) Using T25 torx bits, I have a few extras.
    - Small battery operated circular saw (not necessary but would make things easier)
    - Gloves and old clothes you don't mind getting polyurethane glue on. If it does get on you, it takes ~2 days to wear off of skin.


    Sunday - 3/22

    Dependant on how much we get done Saturday. Probably the same plan. I'll post an update Saturday.

    Wood Delivery - Saturday 3/21 @ 2-3 pm
    Monday - 3/23

    The decking wood is being delivered to my house in the late afternoon on Monday Saturday. Will need 4-5 extra bodies to unload the 5000lbs of wood. Don't have a definite time at the moment but will post an update when it's settled. If you are interested and available send me a PM and I'll relay the delivery address.
