Boat Plans Wooden | ‘Pike’ versus the Patio Wall – Part 3

Boat Plans Wooden

There was a clear winner today. ‘Pike’ was only a memory from the day before; whereas the wall took my full attention and was finished – one course was completed in the morning and the final topping of bricks in the afternoon, bringing victory to the wall.

Good weather made a lot of difference and sunshine brought a ‘good feeling’ factor.

My next job will be to fill in the trench either side of the wall; then fill in the large area that will form the foundation of the patio. At first, I’ll have to make a layer of hard core and on top of it a layer of gravel. Finally before laying the flagstones I’ll have to make a smooth bed of Diall Recycled Glass Paving Sand.

Messy process

Hidden order in the mess of creativity

There has only ever been one Creator. He was from the beginning and from before the beginning, because He always existed and will continue to exist into the future. Indeed, He created time. He can end time and create a new time in a new world in a new universe. He already exists in more than one time zone: heavenly time and universal world time and in His own eternal time. He is ubiquitous in all time zones.

When He created the universe He created all things, inanimate and animate. Life was and is in Him, and He is the giver of life to all whom He wills. He gives life and He takes it away.

All of this is remarkable and astounding; one might say, miraculous, but God is a miraculous being. When He created the universe, there was no mess in the creative process; nor did He require pre-existing matter for creating the universe. This is so unlike those whom He created. We can, in fact, not create in the pure sense, as did God; we can only re-create with existing materials. Even, so-called new materials brought into being by modern technology are made from matter created by God.

The Bible says we were created in His image, but we are not created in His glory, majesty and power, and we do not have eternal life, but we can have everlasting life* through believing in His Son.

*John 3:16 ‘For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.’

Boat Plans And Kits

‘Pike’ waits patiently on the front lawn. She doesn’t know when her boathouse will be free and when she will be taken for a sail. Her master is looking forward to checking her over and doing a bit of touch-up with paint where minor abrasion on the chines has revealed bare wood.

Progress is being made with the patio. Slowly, but surely things are being set in order. Today I started laying down the hard core. Before I can do the remainder I’ll have to remove a fair amount of soil to obtain the required depth. At this stage I cannot be certain if I’ll manage without a skip.

There’s still a lot of work to be done and quite how I’m going to manage laying the heavy flagstones remains to be seen. Each flagstone has to be laid on five dabs of cement and slid sideways to the adjoining stones so as to squeeze cement upwards between the joins. Surplus cement has then to be removed cleanly.

I didn’t completely ignore ‘Pike’ today, because another visitor came to have a look at her and to collect my old inflatable canoe that was advertised for sale at the blog.

Various hurdles prevented me from working on the patio until after lunch, and I only had a limited time to try my hand at bricklaying before having to collect my wife by car from the railway station.

At least, I was able to mix a small batch of cement and build the basis of a corner at one end of what will constitute the wall.

The other day I looked at a YouTube video* demonstrating how to lay bricks. The brickie made it look easy. Obviously I have a lot to learn, but the bricks I am using are not standard; they are in fact, what is called ‘pitched walling’. They would appear to be made from concrete which has little porosity, unlike house bricks. Getting cement to adhere to them is not as easy, and because the edges are ragged and slightly convex, keeping the joins tidy is nigh impossible.

Other demands upon me tomorrow will only leave me with part of the afternoon for wall building.

Still, some progress is better than none. The sooner I finish the patio, the sooner I shall have time for playing with ‘Pike’.

Two days ago another visitor came to see ‘Pike’.  This was the third person to see her. At this rate she will soon become a popular visitors attraction.

We tried the sail and we put in a reef by tying the reef lines around the boom, but somehow, the sail didn’t look right, and logically by reducing sail at the foot without lowering the sprit, the centre of effort is raised higher above the waterline.  Obviously, the lower it is the less chance there is of the boat capsizing as a result off wind pressure on the sail.

Messing about with the boat was all well and good, but another sort of pressure different to wind pressure was pressing on my mind. I had to find time for building the retaining wall for the new patio. Yesterday and today I was able to add more bricks to the wall so as to double its height. The existing height has to be doubled again to be satisfactory.
