this week i have mainly been planning. first i need a perfectly sized hole, then i need some metal, then i need to mix a shedload of concrete to fill said hole. i think i need 113 bags of cement, and i think i need about 13 cubic metres of ballast. but further calculations and youtube diy videos are required.
