Started the new Huff and Puff

 Thursday at the Huff and Puff Don, Tom, Glen, Rob, and me, got started on our new layout. First we sorted and stacked all the lumber along the west wall. Then we cut enough lumber to build 8 double support frames.   First thing we did was to build the first support frame and make it into a jig by adding some scrap lumber as stops. Seven more frames were constructed, using the jig. After plotting the position of the first support frame, we set up 2 frames and screwed them together. After adding 1 more frame, all of this structure was then levelled and braced. After patting ourselves on the back we called it a day.
