Formwork and heat

Thrilling, yes?

Today at least we did some building.  Behold, five pieces of formwork.

We achieved that much in the shade before it got too hot to stand, then gave up and drove to Melbourne.  We left Clydesdale mid-morning when it was already 35 degrees inside the house and something really really stupid outside.

The four small boxes are made from laminated chip-board and MDF, which we pulled out of a rubbish skip in Yarraville a few years back.  It used to be someone's kitchen cupboards. Anyone doing mud work should get themselves some of this stuff, because it's easy to cut and join, nothing sticks to it and it's free.
