As to my aviary, first let me say a huge thanks to Bruce from Wyong sheds who built the Colourbond and mesh sections to our design and specifications. They were really great.
Here are some pics of the foundation work using sleepers to lay out a level bed for the enclosed raised paver floor to be installed next. Corners of the sleepers are screwed to metal retaining spikes driven another 20cm into the earth.
Digging the sleepers and bed down necessitated using a shovel, trowel and hands to break up and remove a large sandstone deposit under one corner. My house sits on a stoney hillside.
