Enough steel to build the Empire State Building


Well, perhaps not quite but 30 pieces of 100mm-channel landscaping posts, each 1800mm long, make a sizeable hole in one's wallet at today's steel prices.

Why build in steel? We Germans like things to last a Thousand Years!


The work has begun, with Troy and Steve Colbrook setting a cracking pace. Even little Gracie is lending a tiny hand.




Six posts cemented in; many more to go!


The K9-3 DINGO makes digging those 800mm-holes child's play.


Still, sipping a cold one while sitting in the shade is always welcome!
