Nice job Michael, I only wish I had a nice big tank to bolt a pier on.
Alas I have to start from scratch.

I have started digging out today. I am building the footing on the side of a very steep bank. I have to use Gabion cages to form retaining walls. I will end up using about 2m3 of concrete. The footing will be about 2m deep.
It shouldn't move.

I will post some pictures to show the progress.

cheers
Phil
