Supply Dolyak.
There's some cement bags under there somewhere as well.
And Dysperbit in the trunk.

Looks like I will find out if a new window that costs 100 bucks delivered is any good...
The main job of that window is to close the hole in the wall and keep the rain out. Its an uninsulated attic (insulation is in the floor), so single pane would be fine, but those cost more as they are non standard.

#Knirps got some sand for playing.
And a little bit for me so I don't have to keep sieving it out of the aggregate pile whenever I need it for mortar.
Now we have two decorative mounds in the garden instead of one! 👍️

Need to do a material haul before I can continue the foundation project.
XPS foam panels, glue, cement.
Also more sphagnum moss from the forest. That stuff is the best.

So many Youtube DIYers don't know about concrete vibrators and do shitty concrete pours or add excessive water to make it more "flowy".
Mine was €60 from Ali and has done a fantastic job so far. Especially with casting against the old foundation it really gets the concrete flowing into the gaps between the stones to lock them in place. I see the air bubbles pop out of them when getting the tip near one and the concrete level drops as it flows in.
Same for making sure it flows into the extended footing and fills it.
It'll also make sure the rebar and anchor bolts are completely surrounded, which is essential for them to grip well.
Here's an example of the effect:

Corner poured. There were many dark rainclouds passing by but my squinting at them caused them to behave.
This is the pouring setup after a few iterations.
Tractor with ancient manure cart top on pallet forks. Filled with four wide bucket loads from the excavator by the pile in the back. From there, shoveled into the mixer.
Cement tub on the other side and a small cart to haul bags from the barn and decant them into the tub.
Water trickling from a hose fills the water tub under the mixer with the fill bucket floating in it. It also catches most spills/wash from the mixer.
Concrete chute directly behind the insulation panels, with a plastic foil and board protecting the wall. The chute got a high side to catch the splashes.

Pouring station ready. And dirt piles moved out of the way.
Will see what the weather brings tomorrow. Been a bit unruly in some parts of the country with roofs flying away and trees blowing over.

Girding my loins for a weekend of laying carpet tiles. Any shared experience would be welcome. Glue, or double-sided tape, or just gravity?
Apparently I have to be very careful with the Stanley knife.

Corner closed and skirt laid. Yes, the corner skirt extends that far.
As this cornerstone had moved (a few mm in 90 years), there's a void for an extended concrete footing under the skirt.
Now a little bit of cleanup, some bitumen, a thin layer of sand for drainage and the dirt can go back in to cover the skirt, protecting it.
Its rather hot today and this white foam is very reflective, so I'm being roasted from all sides 😓

Many holes drilled, which is slow work. The Makita drill bit is more durable, lasted about twice as long as even the super expensive Bosch one. And these were actually quite cheap, although that was a reduced price.
The rocks look like hedgehogs now with anchor bolts and rebar in them but got quickly covered up by foam panels. Almost got to the corner before it got too late and I ran out of juice.
One round rock was under a foundation stone and so remained in place, with the foam cut around it and then added back on the outside to make up for lost thickness.
Few more panels and then the skirt, which requires careful grading and another round of digging as it extends further out on the corner.

Back in the trenches of the foundation project. Yesterday I chiselled off the last of the bad old concrete, which was so poorly adhered it came off in big chunks.
The granite wedges I picked out for re-use, then filled some new concrete into the big gaps under the beam.
While that cures, I've dug out the cornerstone, levered out some big rocks and pressure washed the stones.
Next the anchors, rebar and insulation foam panels (which double as "lost" formwork). Lets see how the Makita drill bits hold up to the granite.

This must be the dumbest most pointless day of the month. And it's not even my fault this time!

Apparently the ants didn't fancy having their nest excavated and then a ton of concrete poured on it and vibrated in the cracks. So we had a little ant battle in the living room, they were uncorking the big eggs with the winged ants to swarm and try and start new nests and I was murdering and vacuuming them up.
Hopefully we did get them all and they didn't just find a new hideout somewhere and are rebuilding.
Last year there was already tons of ants and this year there's even more. The ones we battled had tiny little placards that read: "you fucked up the planet, its our turn now"
I read somewhere that ants are highly heat resistant and can withstand temperatures of up to 50°C.
Not yet, ants, not yet.

Progress at last. Braved it despite a "Dangerous Thunderstorm Warning" and got lucky.
Shovelled ~1000 kg cement and aggregate into the orange hole and poured them down the slot between old foundation and new foam.
While I was still cleaning up, the rain came, but once the concrete is done there is only the small slot to cover, so everything is fine. I got soaked but my concrete is safe.
Phew!
New sand hauling method works ok too. Four heaped grading buckets of wet sand is the maximum. That's plenty for a couple mixer loads. Better than making a mess of the car trailer.
