Taking the Science to the next level

So, we've moved to working on posts, and figuring out how best to line them up and make sure they're sort of straight. Working from our concrete footings, we've got to get the posts in line --some sort of line-- that will allow us to figure out which way they should face and how best to carve out the joint parts.

We've started on the north 'bent', and we're doing a number of things to find the best line. Here Melissa is looking down a string stretched between the first and last post (there's 5) and telling what needs to be moved where.

It is fund to be working with wood instead of stone.
