it was a little slow getting to this point<\/a> but it looks like we’re rolling now. on monday things were still looking a bit unchanged: a slab, by now properly seasoned and literally as hard as stone. bits and pieces made of rolled mild steel, hopefully cut to the appropriate lengths. at this point the packaging looked a little seasoned as well, but it’s the contents that count, and those are galvanised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

it can’t take too long, though, the installation of the panels & batteries is booked in for the end of the month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
