Today was a busy day and for me it seemed to be the most productive as the structures came along well, quickly and are in good condition. We were few yet the work was done super.
I worked on the top stairs and platform again today placing the cladding on the frame structure; here I learnt much about certain tools. We first set out the planks as per bay- this was more learning on planning and checking work before final construction. We set out lines for the screwing so that we created a pattern even with screwing nails- this showed attention to details. We continued with drilling holes at the marked points, then using a sunken drill to sink the marked section on the plank down as to have the screws protected from later sanding the planks.
I thought before that using such tools would be dangerous and tough for me but today I was drilling away and having fun with my team, I was using the poise bit, sunken drill, screws and more tools. I learnt that one needs to receive guidance first, to listen, observe on site and even ask before using any tools.
Our team worked so efficiently and well together, well, we had a leader who was someone respectful and gave us all something to do, learn and more.
WE WILL MEET AT THE END OF THE BRIDGE..LOL!
