Levelling and Tamping

I'm leveling the gravel, then the civil boys from work drop by with their surveying transom to take some shots of my corners - 3 are the same, and one is 1/2" low, and the drain is 1/4" high, so pretty damn good I must say.

I spend the rest of the day trying to get it better, then the gas-powered compacter does a good final job. The south-east corner looks a little low though.

Time to go get some 2x6's for the forms, and wire mesh for the slab....$173
