28th May

Tools used:- ear, foot protection, hammer and nails, 30m and 8m tape measures, string line, straight edge, level

Today we continued to check the top plates were straight by setting up a string line across the top plate then using blocks at each end and a dodger to check along the entire length,

Where the top plate was out, we adjusted the braces to either move the plate out or inwards a few mm

After 1pm we started on making sure each wall was parallel. We took measurements starting from the outside walls taking measurements from each corner, checking they were the same [when they were out we moved the frame [only by mm] so the were the same, then had to check they were plumb as well]
