Parapet Cladding Panels are Aloft

Thanks to heroic assistance from neighbour Tim today we have lifted the top row of parapet cladding panels into their approximate locations on the flat roofs.  The last few days have been far too windy to attempt such an operation.

A makeshift hoisting system using webbing straps and tonne bags plus manpower worked well:

 And here they all are in the roofs.  46 panels down and 12 or so still to manufacture when this first batch are fixed in place.   The panels have been made to the millimetre following Stuart Green's specifications.  When in place each panel will be separated from its neighbours by a precise 15mm gap, the parapet panels determining the locations of those below.

Still some thinking to do but at this stage it looks as though I shall assemble and fix the parapet panels myself.   I was once a whizz with Meccano so this should be a breeze.
