Probably not as they hadn't delivered bits or caisson liners nor rebar to assemble cages. Patience, it'll happen.

I did walk by. Very close. There are liners there, but they seem to be smaller ones, and the rebar had just been delivered. Flatbed truck still was there.

The actual drill that hangs off the end of the crane still is not there

sounds like things are getting ever closer.

those bananas simply have to start dancing someday this week, right?

No kidding, about as fast as anyone could hope for! I went from skeptic a few months ago to flat out believer in this project. Now im checking this thread every hour.

Yeah, if they were tying cages yesterday surely they will be in the ground today. They never just stack that shit up or the site would be a total mess. Put the cages together and drop em the ground. Let's go Case, get your butts in gear.

Come on you jerks, stick the bit in the dirt so we can let the nanners fly! So close, but no we have to stack some sleeves first.

Notyrview · #**1673** Posted **Sep 21, 2016, 6:05 PM**

The dramatic tension for this one is quite good.

Seriously, those Case foundation guys must read this forum. Bunch of assholes, building us up with all this excitement

KWILLSKYLINE · #**1676** Posted **Sep 21, 2016, 7:38 PM**

So they are going to be using Gems 2 for staging. Would have been cool to see them build both those foundations at once. would have looked like one ,even more, massive site.
