Steel components completed... almost!

On Saturday, Hubi (a good friend of mine who lets me use his workshop and helps me with technical issues) and I completed the bulk of the metal work for the first Gardenqub.
Here are some pics:

Here is one of the joist hangers attached to the bottom frame element, and yes, those are my feet in the pic as well.

These are the 2 5.7m long frame elements that will hold the floor joist hangers. The holes are marked and ready for drilling.

Here you see my friend Hubi welding and in the lower pic one of the Gardenqub elbows welded and ready for installation. As you can see, Hubi is a master welder.

The 26 normal joist hangers collected here ready for delivery. Under them are some of the frame elements 

The Elbows and corner joist hangers ready ready for delivery.
These are the parts that would be delivered to customers of the Gardenqub. Everything will smoothly bolt together. I anticipate that the assembly on site will be surprisingly rapid now.

With vacations planned for next week, I have just this coming week to get most of this project done. The client is a little apprehensive about progress but is pleased to see that we are doing everything possible to get his Gardenqub in place.

In any case, the metal supplier did not have enough square steel pipe in stock to supply the entire quota of pipe required to complete the Gardenqub. The upper frame will be supplied in about 2-3 weeks so this gives me breathing room with the client.
