The Debris Lodge Continues

The lodge / long term survival shelter building continued today.  Youssef started working by himself this morning as I got some square bale hay from a local farmer.

I joined up with him later in the day, finished adding another support ring, gathered some logs to keep the show progressing tomorrow, and stuffed the side panels with the tops of the pine trees while weaving them through the ribs lashed earlier.  One more ring tomorrow and the roof joists will be completed.  Just like on the body we will weave flexible pine branches to hold back the debris over the long term.

Finishing 1 of 7 bands

The process continues of weaving pine needles that will hold back debris and smell nice.
