    Another box ticked off (well two really 😉) it might be worth investing in an SDS drill to save your arms from all that chiselling, if your house is anything like ours you will be doing a LOT more of that 😂. We drove past your house a few days ago and it is looking good, keep it up 👍

      We will definitely get an SDS drill. Next time when you are passing say Hi. We will be pleased to meet you both.

      I have just been in Lidl Pombal and they are doing an SDS for €49.99 . Your van was there when we first went past but had gone when we were on the way back anyway. Will definitely pop in next time 😁

    If you get a misting bottle with water in it and give a couple of squirts high in the air during grinding, the mist will capture the dust in the air as it falls. Clears the room much quicker than waiting for it all to settle naturally, and makes breathing a bit easier. I don't envy you the job. Good result though - electricity one step closer :)

      Great tip!
      As i have asthma, i was thinking our heros might like to use a N85 mask whenever working with fine aerolyzed particles. We want them to enjoy their retirement and house rebuild in good health for a long time. Ah! Dave put on a terrific mask for his indoor dust making 😊👍🏼.
      Gumamela/hibiscus is such a pretty plant.

    Aww, bless Mum for sending such an excellently useful cutting tool. Great to see Dave so at ease with creating pathways needed to fit boxes and conduit in your stone house. You've taken pretty well to what were new building skills, being thoughtful and methodical helps a lot.
    Oo, i just had a thought: you know what might be helpful during you dyi and after is an air purifier. It'd be multipurpose as aside from building dust, it'll help with any sooty air, Sahara dust clouds, road dust kicked up from passing cars, things floating in from strimming, rototilling the kamd, burning debris, etc. I got 2 for our house when we has successive years of great forest fires in Northern California -- they made a huge difference in our home's air quality. As our also having heating & air circulation features, i keep at least 1 on for most of the year. Great investment.
    Hooray for being ready to get hooked up for grid electricity!

      Thanks for the recommendation for an air purifier, something to consider in the future.
      We have more steps to go through before we get connected
