New Building Pictures!

Okay, so as promised here are the pictures of them installing the pier system that is necessary for our foundation.  They are about 6 feet long, and they bolt sections together as they go deeper so they can be quite long.  The tractor’s attachment screws them into the ground and when they hit solid rock they twist so you know they are firmly planted.  Otherwise the put two to three sections together and they are deep enough not to move.  it is pretty cool to watch!
