used scaffold and ladder to hold jacks and 2 x 10

After the holiday we spent most of our time shoring up the spaces within the outer jacks with more jacks. We decided to go with a 4 foot spacing rather than 6 foot.  This should make things really secure for the weight of concrete and the men pouring and finishing the floor. We also moved the front door to the new container to be able to start applying the seal coat to the mahogany. Then we'll make the frame from the V-Buck and frame in the entryway. Then just tilt up the big door and bolt it in to the frame. Sounds easy, right? We'll see soon.
