The Pit has been started !!

[jacko996]

Well finally plucked the courage up to do the pit, with the help of my mate Paul

Floor marked out ready for cutting



Then out with the 12" angle grider to cut the floor and then Kango the reinforced concrete up.







Up with the concrete, now ready for the mini digger








Not all the hole dug yet and already filled 2 x 6 yard skips





More digging tomorrow!!

Your welcome to jump in, It looks so deep I dont think Im far off breaking through to the other side

Will end up at 1.8 meters deep I hope, just cant believe how much soil has come out!!

Great thread I've often considered doing this to my garage will keep an eye on this keep the pics coming

Blimey Dave, you dont hang about

were you tempted to quickly backfill the hole when Paul was in there

[radiant rob]

how deep.

[cosmo]

Got your work cut out there Jacko, but that's a cracking job you've done

Will be well worth it when it's finished too

LOL I had a few names on a list I would like at the bottom of it, So if you want to add any, your more than welcome, I can always go a meter deeper to cope
