Believe my first photo in here. A scary job but guess someone has to do it. Taken from the 2nd floor balcony at work so he is waay up there. They tie the branch with ropes, he cuts it loose and it drops. Getting acrophobia just watching him.

Thai Style Concrete Reinforcing

The Light Gauge Steel allows the Hardened Concrete to " Flex " so as not to add " Stress " , and therefore eliminates any " Fractures " , so I was informed w00t.gif

It really didn't matter the roof leaked on the first day and the guttering was almost non-existent , so what is a lack of " REO " gonna help facepalm.gif

Wasn't sure where to put these but these are friends of my wife who came to pick the Longan fruit for us. My understanding we got around 200-250kG from the one tree we have in the yard. That's a bunch. biggrin.png Some we give out to our neighbors, some I take to work and this year about 100+kG is going to Chonburi for her sister to sell at her village store.
