Well, this summer, i've got the task of making some underground storage, i figured it would be a nice idea.
No concrete needed:, im planning on the rrom being 5*5*3 *metres), and when i get 3+ metres down, it's going to be solid clay, so foundations shouldnt be needed. The frame will be made from the local forge, and i get to have stairs which turn into a slide so it's like an evil lair (mainly so i cal pull stuff out via the pulley system. Also need to get rid of a drainage pipe, but i will just use the manhole area to fill with water which i shall empty regulary. Shall keep you posted with pics etc (friend wants me to do a swimming pool under her decking so one piece of deck rolls under the other...very swish, maybe this will turn into a business venture, if you want a hole in the ground (so big and sorta round) just ask...
And the title? well, 75 cubic metres of clay, apart from building a dirt jump, havnt had many other suggestions, if you want some...just ask.
Anyone want to make a Pot?
