Building the base for the jig

Today we built the base of the jig. Since we don't have  a level concrete floor in our yard, we had to make a level structure with accurate square angles to be able to put up the jig.

The work was made very easy with the DeWalt tools we just received. Those 3 inch screws went into that green wood as if through butter :D

Long afternoon of work but a good job done though we were slightly hampered by the rain. But we didnt allow our spirits to be dampened by the weather ;)

Bored at the rain causing spray onto our wood pile :D ....waiting for the weather to improve.

First testing of the DeWalt hammer drill. That machine is a beast :D 

Early evening. Almost done with wood work.

Takes barely 5 s to insert a 3inch screw into that wood with our hammer drill.

Job done. Base is perfectly level and square. Very strong construction.

Here's a demo of the machine for anyone interested to know a little bit more about our DeWalt hammer drill
