Well  here is concrete ! I guessed 8 cubic metres, the guts supplied 7.95 out the back of the truck!

Must  be getting better at the estimating!
Reinforcing mesh for concrete under floor is set on these clever chaps. I bought 200 of each size and have about 40 of each left. Will see if I can off load them on gumtree!
