A2 + B2 = ???


What do you get when you mix an art guy turned builder with a physics guy turned carpenter. Not a clue! Actually it wasn't that bad once we figured out which side of the tape measure to use.

That's me (in the red) and my good friend Steve working out the math for squaring up the footings. It took us a little bit to get things straight, but in the end we made significant progress. To bad the hole for the basement wasn't big enough. Oh well. It was good practice anyhow.

It nice when things come together... See the original sketch.
