The Walls are Poured

This afternoon they poured the walls of the house. Because of the small size of the lot they could not get the cement trucks close enough, so they had to bring in a pumper truck. Look at the size of this thing!

Keep scrolling down! Scroll down! Scroll down!

Yikes!

Here’s how it works, the cement truck feeds the pumper…

Then the pumper truck pumps the cement aaaalll the way up and then aaalll the way back down to the guy at the end who squirts it into the forms.

Here’s the guy at the end. Glop glop

Look at the reach on this thing!

Hey! Look at this!

I guess you can fix anything with duct tape!

Below is a photo of the finished product.

Hey! That looks the same as it did yesterday!

Well, yeah…. but now it has cement in it. Check it out.

See? Cement. And anchor bolts. Pretty good stuff. Tomorrow they are supposed to strip off the forms. Then we get to see what it really looks like.
