Dogspikes

We got very lucky with the weather today. Just a hint of rain as the last battery went flat.

We’ve drilled and stood spikes for just over 1 km, a fair effort for a small crew of 5!

We got to test a creation of John’s, a slide hammer for starting spikes. And despite it being a bit heavy after the first km, it certainly beats the hell out of bending over and starting each one with a hammer!

We’re now well into Curve 11, with really only one days worth of drilling to go to get to the end of the job, plus a few more days to get everything ready for drilling.

Next week’s weather is looking interesting, so check back on Monday for details of Tuesday.
