The weather is taunting me - miserable conditions over the weekend, fine days during the week when I'm shackled to my office desk
I decided to try something different today (Tuesday - fine weather)
Got up at 5.30 am
Working by 6.00 am
Did 3 hours work up to 9.00 am
Farted around a bit, loaded the ute with tools, went out to site and laid another 4 rows of floorboards, Home by 2.00 pm, back to money earning work.
Here are my timings:
Load tools on to utility (all preboxed ready to go) - 5 minutes
Drive out to Wooroloo - 20 minutes
Unload tools, set out, setup, plug in extension leads, set up drop saw, pull back covers - 15 minutes
Dock and lay 4 lengths (10 metres) of floorboards - 30 minutes
Clamp, wedge, check width measurements - 30 minutes
Predrill, countersink, screw - 60 minutes
Pack up tools in to boxes on utility, re-cover floorboards with black plastic - 15 minutes
Drive back home - 20 minutes
Unpack tools from utility to workshop - 5 minutes
So 80 minutes overhead to do 120 minutes work on site
I guess it doesn't look too good on paper - but it is a nice break from programming work in the middle of the day and at least I can make a little bit of progress on the fine days.
